1.     Footnote: In this book, you will find footnotes that are explanatory or additional notes placed at the bottom of the page. For example, a small letter ‘4’ after the word Doha is written to notify there’s a footnote related to the word.

Doha4

Figure ‘4’ here denotes a reference source, clarifies content, or offers supplementary details. The details are provided at the bottom of the same page.

4 Doha = link of 2 sentences getting rhythm/rhyme in hymns.

2.    Reference: A lot of information in the book is referred to from various sources. These sources are denoted after the word as numbers appearing inside square brackets.

A simple example of a single-book reference:

A convention in Paris [15]

Here, the number 15 notifies the point given in the Bibliography/Reference List at the end of the book that cites the reference book from which this information is sourced.

Another example that specifies the reference as well as the page number:

Again, the number 15 notifies the reference book name given in the Bibliography/Reference List at the end of the book. Page numbers 31 to 38 mention the pages in the reference book from which this information is sourced.

We hope it’s clear that the book will provide a mix of information and references to explain the context in detail.
