References to documental funds or collections should be made in italics (e.g.: IAN/TT — Convento de Santa Clara de Vila do Conde, cx. 37, mç. 7, s.n.).

b) bibliographical citations: bibliographical references, in footnotes, should include, regardless of the nature of the publication (book, article, etc.), the author(s)’ surname(s) (in capitals), year of publication and page(s) where the citation was taken from (e.g.: PIRES, 2009: 319). If two authors are involved, the surnames of both should be indicated, separated by & (e.g.: ROSAS & MÁIZ, 2008: 338). If there are several authors, the first author’s surname should be followed by the abbreviated expression «et alii», in italics (e.g.:RAMOS et al., 2009: 622). If the author has more than one work included in the bibliography and published in the same year, a letter corresponding to the alphabetical order of the bibliography should be added to the year of publication (e.g.: SARAIVA, 2009a: 11).
