Notes

In MLA documentation style endnotes or footnotes may be used for comments that may not fit well in the body of the essay, such as evaluative comments on sources. Here are some typical kinds of comments that might go in footnotes or endnotes. Note that a space goes between the number and the text of the note.

　　An acknowledgment, numbered"1" and attached to the title or first sentence of the essay.

　　Thanks to the Society of Junior Fellows for generous research support.

　　A note on method, attached to the first citation of pertinent material.

　　Pseudonyms have been used to preserve the confidentiality of interviewees.

　　In 1998 Allient Computing changed its accounting procedures, making comparison with previous years impractical.

　　A bibliographic note with suggested additional sources.

　　On this difficult subject see Otto Demus, Byzantine Art and the West （Weidenfeld & Nicolson 1970）. The Larousse Encyclopaedia of Byzantine and Medieval Art, ed. Ren?Huyghe （Paris 1958）, supplies useful documentation on other influences from the Near and Far East including Persian, Egyptian, Indian and Chinese Art of earlier periods.
