 Things like [[public:nnels:etext:epigraph|epigraphs]], [[public:nnels:etext:quotations|block quotations]], and [[public:nnels:etext:back-cover|book reviews]] will often be followed by an attribution, either to an author or some other source. Things like [[public:nnels:etext:epigraph|epigraphs]], [[public:nnels:etext:quotations|block quotations]], and [[public:nnels:etext:back-cover|book reviews]] will often be followed by an attribution, either to an author or some other source.
  
-The epigraph, block quote, and book review should be formatted using the **Blockquote (DAISY)** style from the NNELS Template, and the attribution should be formatted using the **Author (DAISY)** style or the **Citation (DAISY)** style, depending on what is appropriate.+The epigraph, block quote, and book review should be formatted using the ''Quote'' style in the Word Style Pane, and the attribution should be formatted using the a custom style ''Citation''.
  
-Use the **Author (DAISY)** style when there is only an author name, and the **Citation (DAISY)** style when the source includes a person's name //and// the name of a work (or just the name of a work). See example in the Q&A below.+To create a new style: 
 +  Select ''New Style...'' from Styles Pane 
 +  This opens up a pop up window for the New Style 
 +  Change name to ''Citation'' 
 +  For ''Style Based On'' select ''Normal'' 
 +  Select ''OK''
  
-The **Author (DAISY)** style is also used in [[public:nnels:etext:poetry|poetry]], to mark the name of the author.+Style all Author and Citations with this style.
  
-=====Q&A===== 
- 
-**Q: Is it appropriate to use the "Author" style for marking up the source of an epigraph? The source is not an author, but a text ("Emmanuel's Book")** 
- 
-A: The "Author" style should be used to mark up the source of an epigraph when that source is the name of a person. If the source includes a name of a person __and__ the name of a work, or just the name of the source (i.e. it's a citation) then we should use the "Citation" style.  
- 
-For example, we should mark the entire quote below with "Blockquote" style and then mark the author's name with the "Author" style.  
-   
-     "It is a certainty that the free market will always generate greater 
-     wealth for the main players than will a planned economy. The question is, 
-     at what cost?" 
-     Virginia Hamilton Anderson 
-      
-If the source includes extra information (more than just a name), then we must mark up the text with the "Citation" style. The Citation style marks a reference or citation to another source. 
- 
-For example, we would mark Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland with the "Citation" style: 
- 
-    "If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there." 
-    Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
