<source> Source
Title of the resource (for example, journal, book, podcast, conference proceedings,
radio or TV show) that contains (is the source of) the material being cited in a bibliographic
reference or product. In the case of a resource that has titles at multiple hierarchical
levels, this is the title of the largest titled resource (e.g., the TV show name and
not the episode title).
Usage/Remarks
Within a bibliographic reference (<mixed-citation> or <element-citation> and similar elements), the <source> element is the title of the resource being referenced, such as a journal, book, podcast,
report, conference proceedings, radio or television show, etc.
For example:
- For journal citations, the <source> is the name of the journal, and the title of the article being cited is tagged as <article-title>.
- For book citations, the <source> is the name of the book, and the title of the chapter being cited is tagged as <part-title>.
- In citing an episode of a podcast, the podcast name is the <source>, and the episode title is a <part-title>.
- The name of a software product (“Oxygen Editor”, “Microsoft Excel”) should be cited as a <source>.
- For citing a standalone audio/video/multimedia/podcast, the “title” of the work will typically be thought of as the <source> rather than as any of the title elements, e.g., <source>How to build and fire a mini-cannon</source>. If the audio/video/multimedia/podcast is part of a series, the series name should be the <source>, and the episode title should be a <part-title>.
- The “name” of a website should be cited as a <source>.
