Edition
Notes-bibliography style: citing specific types of sources
Part II. Source Citation

The term edition has several meanings, all based on the fact that some works are published more than once with changes in content and/or format. If you cite a book published in more than one edition, always indicate which edition you consulted because editions may differ. (If none of the markers described below apply to a book, you can assume it is a first edition, a fact that is not cited.)

REVISED EDITIONS. When a book is reissued with significant content changes, it may be called a “revised” edition or a “second” (or subsequent) edition. This information usually appears on the book's title page and is repeated, along with the date of the edition, on the copyright page.

When you cite an edition other than the first, include the number or description of the edition after the title. Abbreviate such wording as “Second Edition, Revised and Enlarged” as 2nd ed.; abbreviate “Revised Edition” as rev. ed. Include the publication date only of the edition you are citing, not of any previous editions (see 17.1.6).

REPRINT EDITIONS. A book may also be reissued in a new format—for example, in a paperback edition (by the original publisher or a different publisher), or in electronic form (see 17.1.10). Even though the contents of the book might be minimally changed from the original, cite the reprint edition if you consulted it. You may wish to indicate that it is a reprint, especially if it was published more than a year or two after the original edition or is a modern printing of a classic work. In this case, include the publication dates of both the original and the edition you are citing (see 17.1.6).
