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

If a book cited is part of a formal series, you are not required to include information about the series, but you may include some or all of it to help readers locate or judge the credibility of the source. Insert this information after the title (and after, if any, edition and volume information) and before the facts of publication.

The most useful information about a series is its title. Present it in roman type with headline-style capitalization. If the volumes in the series are numbered, you may include the number of the work cited following the series title. The name of the series editor is often omitted, but you may include it after the series title.

Some numbered series have existed for so long that numbering has started over. Books in a new series are indicated by n.s., 2nd ser., or some similar notation, usually enclosed in commas before the series number. Books in the old series are identified by o.s., 1st ser., and so forth.
