• In some cases, the publisher does not mention the year of publication. Then, instead of the year, enter w.y. (=without year).
• If in the notes are made more references to the same work, proceed as follows:
  – When reference is made immediately after the first mention of the work, the data is substituted by the term Ibidem, after which, when necessary, mention the page number(s).
  – When a new reference to the same work follows after several footnotes, give only the name of the author, the rest of the data being supplemented by the words op. cit. (with italics), followed by the page number(s).

  – When the author quotes not from a primary source, but from another book, enter the word Apud (after).
  – An author can be put in a position to cite information from a large number of pages of a single work. To avoid the risk of introducing a multitude of footnotes, may introduce, in this case, a single footnote in which, instead of page numbers, is inserted the term passim (everywhere).
