Mills Source List Format organized by adding leading geographic location
Mills style is extremely flexible in the organization of source lists, allowing the addition of elements to force a desired sorting. I've shown it here as a bulleted list, but it is supposed to be outdented paragraphs so that the alphabetic nature of the location names is more prominent. I transformed the table to this format automatically using Excel. However, the 3rd item had to be hand corrected because "Vol. 4" shared the table cell with the URL. Also, I've shown the year of digitization as "200?" because the year was not available in your table. Hot linking the title is technically an extension to Mills, but this is necessary because Mills doesn't include a URL directly to the item.
