The notes and bibliography system can accommodate a wide variety of sources, including unusual ones that don’t fit neatly into the author-date system. Sources are also usually listed in a separate bibliography. Each note corresponds to a raised (superscript) number in the text. In this system, sources are cited in numbered footnotes or endnotes. The notes and bibliography system is preferred by many working in the humanities-including literature, history, and the arts.
