Hi John,
I cite it as a personal correspondence (re: The Chicago Manual of Style), but
our reference librarian (a real whiz) just told me about a book that deals with
citing electronic publications/communications/whatever and it looks GREAT.
The title of the book is
Electronic Style, A Guide to Citing Electronic Information
by Xia Li and Nancy Crane (research librarians)
ISBN 0-88736-909-X
$15.00

Does anyone out there have information about th
e proper format
for bibliographies or parentehtical references citing material
that was obtained via FTP or E-mail, etc.?
My copy of Cambell's guide __Form and Style for Theses, Reports &
Term Papers__ doesn't address the subject at all. (The school I am
attending prefers the American Psychological Association format.)
