<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#1F497D">I do use the new citation forms in my cataloging, but admit that I don't insert the word "entry" before the number. The word does nothing to enhance understanding
of the citation—unless someone might be confused that it refers to a page number, but that confusion is quickly sorted out once the resource is consulted, especially if we consistently use "p." in the ‡c if we are referring to a page number. Inserting "entry"
makes the entire citation longer, adds unnecessary visual noise, and is not a traditional practice for citing bibliographies. Plus, calling it an "entry" doesn't quite make sense for an online database, which consist of "records" rather than "entries."

<p class="MsoNormal">The SCF Editorial Team has discussed the issue of citing entry numbers for online resources. We recommend citing the unique database number for the entry as its presented in the resource. We've added a statement to this effect, along with
several examples, to the Working Principles. <o:p></o:p></p>
