How to Format Footnotes and Endnotes
IN THE TEXT
- Make sure there is a space before and after the number or asterisk in the text
- Do not add in an asterisk if there is a number
- Numbers may be super or subscripted; whichever is in the original text
- If there is a dagger (†), replace it with an asterisk (or if there are two, with two asterisks)
FOOTNOTES
- Place the footnote information at the bottom of the page in square brackets
- Both the information and the corresponding number or asterisk should be inside the brackets
- Example: [1. Library of Congress]
ENDNOTES
- Treat the endnote heading as a chapter (16 point and bold)
- Do not use tabs to format (just single spaces)
