Question on Footnotes (1 Viewer)

[Annabanana]

Ok, this one's a bit confusing so stick with me...

if i reference a source say 'complete works of lenin" blah blah. then reference another two-three sources, can I still use 'completed worked of lenin, op. cit.'? or is only after just one source I am allowed to do that and have to reference the whole source again?

Thankyou so much for the help in advance

If you have referenced the full source once, then the following footnotes, no matter their position within the paper, that make use of the same source can be shortened.

If you aren't sure, you could always try your teacher, or have a look at this:

(USyd) The Department of History, A Short Guide to the Writing and Presentation of Papers and Essays is essential for all history writing at all years of study. Footnoting and other technical aspects of essay presentation are also explained and demonstrated there. It is available on the History Department website for free:
