Sometimes an author will quote or paraphrase another person’s work. The work that is referenced is called the original source. The work you are reading is called the secondary source.
Whenever possible, you should try to find and cite the original source. If you cannot access the original source, both the original source and the secondary source must be listed in the note and the bibliography in your citation. No matter the type of source, you always provide full citation information for the original source followed by the words "quoted in" and then full citation information for the secondary source.
You can find the citation information for the original source by looking at the bibliography of the secondary source.
