Terry,

OK, I'll change my example to better fit the previous example. I have seen
an original manuscript which exists in only one location in a Boston
library. There is a microfilm copy of that manuscript which has only limited
copies, one of which I've seen in a San Francisco library. If I've seen
both, and taken information from both, I might note both repositories since
my audience might want to see the source. But my point is that the same
(virtually identical) source can exist in two repositories.

Your comment was:

Would you then create two different sources in my scenario? One for the
manuscript, and another for the filmed version of the manuscript, each with
its own repository?

Cheers!
Bobbie
