[Milton-L] Citing

[Angelica Duran]

Dear Diana McColley,

To answer your question, here is a cut-and-paste from Purdue's Online
Writing Lab, which is an invaluable resource. (No bias towards my current
home institution: we Stanford grad students used it too [!].)

If the electronic transmission messes with the indents, please go to
