References and Biblio Day

Today I am working on my footnotes (getting them to start from 1 on each chapter which google is helping me with atm) and sorting out the bibliography so it is readable.

I also have to find and add in all my interviews which is worrying my greatly as my interviews were largely anonymous so will I have to make up names for them?!  Oh crackers.  Am not sure about form here.

For the biblio I have about 280 refs which I think is a good number, am most pleased (altho am sure I only actually refer to about ten of these again, and again, and again with mind-numbing repetition) but I need to order them alphabetically into sections so they are accessible.  Also, the way endnote has formatted some of the refs, particularly web pages, makes them meaningless to anyone who might actually want to look them up, so I will have to re-enter them or add to the endnote ref or something.

Something tells me this is going to be more than a one day job.  I made DB let me work this morning instead of me looking after Bean as I am quite fretful and need to get on.  Am desperate to make some headway!

And so, onwards!
