College Composition / Unit 27 CMP 0656 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Shortened Notes
Captions available
The idea
Later notes for the same source are shortened to the author's last name, a short title, and the page.
In practice
A second reference to a book gives the last name, a few key words of the title, and the new page.
Where people slip
Shortened notes depend on the full note appearing earlier; never shorten the first citation of a source.
