Hints:

• It's a set of papers from a conference. Be sure to review the list of conference-related keywords from lecture. Can you find the second conference-keyword in this record?
• This person is an editor, not a personal author. Some samples on the midterm review sheet (front side, chart) use abbreviations like "Eds.," which are also common. An editor is the project director for a collective work, like this set of papers.
• The total pages of the publication are given, but not a page-range for a specific paper.
• Specific locations and dates of a meeting are another clue that this work is conference-related.
• Is it the whole conference or a specific paper?

Hints:

• How many titles do you see? Which title has a telling keyword? Note that some citation formats require "quotation marks" around an article title, while others do not.
• Page number range. The high numbers result from continuous pagination (lecture four). You might not recognize these numbers as pages right away, but...
• ...this format is common for volume, issue, & page numbers together: (note special punctuation)
  

  VOL#:ISS#(MONTH)PAGES.

  
  

Hints:

• Author is a government agency.
• Publisher's location is Washington, D.C. (Frequently a clue, but not always.)
• Government Printing Office is the publisher. It is also common that the authoring government agency may be the publisher.

Hints:

• Range of volume numbers, rather than a specific volume.
• Range of years-in-publication, rather than a specific issue date.
• It would be highly unusual for a monograph to have a range of publication-dates rather than one specific date. (It's very common, of course, for a monograph to have more than one volume--remember, that's the distinction between the word "book" and the technical term "monograph," that a multivolume work with many "books" in its set would still be a single monograph in most cases.)
• This type of citation is relatively rare, but it does occur.

Hints:

• What three elements form the publisher's imprint?
  

  (etad + rehsilbup + ecalp :rewsnA)

• What publication-type will almost always include the publisher's imprint in a proper citation?
• What term in the title indicates the type of information provided in this work? In other words, what type of document is this example?
• Does that term indicate that this work is a special type of its publication? Review the list provided on the Attachment to Assignment Two.

Hints:

• SuDoc number instead of a Library of Congress call number. Note that LC call numbers will almost never contain punctuation marks like colons or slashes, while SuDoc numbers will almost always contain at least one of those two (colons & slashes). The nickname "SuDoc" stands for Superintendent of Documents, the head of the Government Printing Office.
• Author is a government agency.
• Location of publication is a center of government (may not always be this city).
• GPO is the publisher. (Also common to have the authoring agency as the publisher.)

Hints:

• Do key words appear in this title which trigger it as a certain type of publication?
• What three elements form the publisher's imprint?
  

  (etad + rehsilbup + ecalp :rewsnA)

• What publication-type will almost always include the publisher's imprint in a proper citation?
• This note means only that the document contains a bibliography, in this case on pages 455-466. The notes field frequently contains information which the book-catalogger believes to be important but which doesn't fit in the purpose of any of the regular fields in the database.
• What does this record type mean? Next, determine if this document might be one of the special sort of this publication-type which we have examined. See the Attachment to Assignment Two.

Hints:

• How many titles do you see? Which title has a telling keyword? Note that some citation formats require "quotation marks" around an article title, while others do not.
• This abbreviation is Latin. It means "et alia" or "and all the others," and it indicates that Hameroff was the principal author in a research team, though other members of the team are not listed.
• Specific locations and dates of a meeting are another clue that this work is conference-related. The Engineering Index uses eight-digit numeric codes for such dates: YYYYMMDD.
• Is this record for a specific paper or for the whole conference?

The end. Good luck on the midterm!
