Gale item with citation info 2024

Author = Use it if it's given. If not, leave blank in footnote, and use the title of the newspaper in place of the author in bibliography.

Title of article = The Re-Appearance Of Cattle Plague In North Lancashire

  • NOTE: In this case, the title as given in the database-supplied data is incomplete. You'll need to write in the rest yourself.

Publication title = Times (London)

  • NOTE: Leave in the place of publication, since there are multiple newspapers called The Times. London is a well known city, so it needs no country afterward.

Publication date = December 13, 1866

Edition/Section/Page information

  • NOTE: Include edition or section information if applicable. This example has neither.
  • NOTE: Page numbers may usually be omitted for newspaper articles.

Location online = Gale Primary Sources or https://link.gale.com/apps/doc/CS135177101/GDCS?u=mnalmgl&sid=bookmark-GDCS&xid=faa9f145

  • NOTE: Because Gale supplies a stable link (though it's long!), you can include either the stable link, or the database name (Gale Primary Sources).
  • NOTE: Because this is a stable archive and not a live news site (unlike, say, the Washington Post app), you do not need to include a time stamp from when you accessed the article online.
