![]() HAG, Letter to Governor, Soror Magdalena de Santo Agostinho, Now that I want to write, can I modify Chicago Style so that when it sees that it is a Manuscript, it outputs the citation the way I want it I can do all kinds of searches, organize the docs in different ways, it works well. Location in Archive: Livro das Monções do Reino, No. ![]() Here is an example:Īuthor: Soror Magdalena de Santo Agostinho I use Title for the name of the Document, and Author for the person who wrote it (mostly letters for me). For example, I use Archive for the name of the Archive (obviously), but then I use Location in Archive to identify the shelf mark. I have used various fields in "Manuscript" to at least get the information inputed. I find that I can use Zotero to organize my citations, but when I go to write, I cannot get Zotero to display the way I want to (puts in quotations, doesn't have a field for page #s). So, I, too, am trying to cite manuscripts. I am trying to figure out a workaround for the question that was asked above about citing manuscripts: Once again, thanks for all your hard work. ![]() References to archival material should give the place-name, the name of the archive, the institution, and the shelf mark: Vatican City, Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, MS Vat. Paris, Bibliothèque nationale de France, MS lat. The first reference to a manuscript should give the place-name, the name of the library, and the shelf mark: Do not use the plural form for inclusive references within a single folio: fol. The abbreviation of “folio” is “fol.” (plural “fols.”). Folio numbers should include a recto/verso reference, abbreviated and written on the line, not as a superscript. Cite the shelf mark according to the practice of the given library. Is there a default type that I should be using (but haven't yet found), or is there a way to modify Zotero to include it? I've added a longer description of what these citations ought to look like below it's taken from the style guide of the journal of the Medieval Academy and is standard for medieval studies.īoth in the text and in the notes the abbreviation “MS” (plural “MSS,” no period) is used only when it precedes a shelf mark. The "manuscript" and "document" document types aren't right: they give quotes where they don't belong and don't include shelfmarks, etc, etc. London, British Library, Sloane MS 1754, fols. Generally speaking, the citations should take the form:Ĭity of Library, Name of Library, Manuscript shelfmark, folio numbers. I'm trying to cite medieval manuscripts, but am having trouble setting the right style.
