 QuickSheet: Citing Online African-American Historical
Resources Evidence! Style, by
Elizabeth Shown Mills.
8.5x11", 4 page laminated
fold out card.
Fitting squarely in the tradition of Mrs.
Mills’ acclaimed QuickSheets, which are used by genealogists everywhere
as a guide for citing online sources. The basic citation models given here help
researchers evaluate the reliability of online historical sources by recording
all relevant information about both the historical material itself and the
website that provides the material. While it provides standards for citing
online sources, this QuickSheet is, of course, tailored to the
African-American experience, so source citation models bear on subjects such as
slave manifests, slave narratives, Freedmen’s Bureau records, and slave census
schedules.

 QuickSheet: Citing Ancestry.com Databases & Images.
1st Revised Edition, by
Elizabeth Shown
Mills.
8.5x11", laminated
fold out card.
Ancestry.com is the largest and most
widely used genealogy site on the Internet. As an Ancestry.com user yourself,
you've looked at databases with billions of names, so now you want to be sure
you can get back to a specific record or lead others to the same record; and you
need to identify your sources, to verify and cross-check them for accuracy,
using the correct citations to Ancestry's online databases and images. Help is
at hand with Elizabeth Mills's fabulous QuickSheet, which provides rules
and models for citing the myriad databases and images you use on Ancestry.com.
With this new QuickSheet, you'll know instantly how to cite databases
that include census records, vital records, passenger lists, city directories,
and family trees; and how to cite images that include manuscripts, maps,
newspapers, and online books and articles. First published in 2009, the
QuickSheet has now been completely revised to reflect changes and new
wrinkles at Ancestry.com. In QuickSheet: Citing Ancestry.com Databases &
Images you'll find the standards you need for the correct citation of
Ancestry sources, as well as help in judging the reliability of those sources.
For most Ancestry.com sources, sample citations are shown here in three styles:
Source List Entry, Full Reference Note, and Short Reference Note, each showing
you how to deal with author/creator, title, website, URL, date accessed, item
type, source of sources, and so forth. Arranged in tabular format under each of
these headings, the sample citations are easy to follow and can be applied to
your specific needs in citing your sources.

 QuickSheet: Citing Online Historical Resources
Evidence! Style. First Revised Edition, by
Elizabeth Shown Mills.
8.5x11", 4 page laminated
fold out card.
First Revised Edition with updated
sample citations and style changes. Elizabeth Mills's QuickSheet
provides a template for citing historical sources on the Internet. It also lays
down rules to help you judge the reliability of these sources. Published in the
form of a laminated folder, the QuickSheet contains a series of sample
citations showing the correct way to identify online sources such as databases,
census images, and digital books and articles. Based on the premise that online
sources are publications that have the same characteristics as printed
publications, it provides rules and models for common record types such as
passenger lists, vital records, and newspapers. Since a website is the online
equivalent of a book, the QuickSheet shows you how to cite
author/creator/owner of a website, title of the website, place (URL), date
posted, and so forth.
