(place and date of print/publication not listed) Explanation: Skróty stosowane w bibliografii:Bibliografia - przedmiotowa [b. d.] – brak daty wydania [b. m.] – brak miejsca wydania [b. m. d.] – brak miejsca i daty wydania https://www.faustyna.pl/zmbm/bibliografia-przedmiotowa-za-la... ------- Q. More often in bibliographic citations, I am seeing the abbreviations s.l. and s.n. in place of n.p. where the place and/or publisher are unknown. What do these abbreviations mean, and are they likely to take over n.p.? A. The abbreviations “s.l.” and “s.n.” stand for the Latin terms sine loco (without place [of publication]) and sine nomine (without name [of publisher]). They also happen to coincide with French bibliographic apparatus, standing for, respectively, sans lieu (de publication) and sans nom (de maison d’édition). They might also stand for Spanish sin lugar and sin nombre. These are perhaps superior to the English “n.p.,” which must stand equally for “no place,” “no publisher,” or “no page,” but in English publications “n.p.,” used correctly, is more likely to be understood; CMOS, therefore, recommends “n.p.” Note that “n.p.” can stand in for both publisher and place, if neither is known - http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/qanda/data/faq/topics/Ab... ----- n.d. - no date (of publication) n.p. - no place (of publication) https://goo.gl/pMvlMY -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 28 mins (2017-01-30 01:17:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sources published directly online have no in print originals, and therefore, it is important to include online publication information (i.e. the website publisher/sponsor and date of electronic publication). If unavailable, for online only sources, MLA7 suggests writing “N.p, n.d.” which means no publisher and no date, respectively. We believe adding such place holders is unnecessary, as it provides no information, and the lack of information can be assumed by its absence in the citation. - http://www.easybib.com/guides/citation-guides/mla-format/web... -------- Missing Information? If you cannot find a place, publisher or date - use place holders "N.p., n.p., n.d." which represents no place, no publisher, and no date. - http://www.easybib.com/reference/guide/mla/general |
