Definition: “Source types specify which characteristics of the source are to be recorded, and how the footnotes and bibliography entries will be formatted.”1
Characteristics – title, author, publisher, date, publisher location, etc
Format – how to arrange these characteristics when citing the source – order, punctuation

These are the characteristics of the source.
Source Groups = Source citation FIELDS
Source Elements = Source citation field LABELS
There are 32 Source Groups (fields) – can use each one only once, but in any order
Use Source Elements (labels) to make data entry easier when creating Source in Master Source List
Source Groups and Source Elements
