The first entry is a sample footnote/endnote as it would appear the first time that a work is cited. Remember, while our examples begin with “1.”, notes should be numbered based on the order they occur in the paper.
The second entry is a shortened version for subsequent notes from the same source.
The third entry is the bibliographic citation that will be found at the end of the work. A bibliography is alphabetized by author’s last name.
NOTE: If a paper is included in a published guide/overview of a conference, it can be cited as a chapter in an edited book. If it is published in a journal, that should be cited instead of the conference details. Use the below format only for papers otherwise unpublished.
