A practical guide for students, descendants and researchers.
Whenever possible record the title or description of the photograph/document/page, creator or author, date, village or subject, and the specific LEMKO.org page where it appears.
LEMKO.org has preserved long-standing URLs deliberately. Copy the complete address of the item or page rather than citing only lemko.org.
For web citations, note the date you viewed the material. The underlying archive is preserved, but explanatory pages and metadata may improve over time.
If LEMKO.org displays a historical document, cite the original document when its authorship and date are known, then identify LEMKO.org as the repository or access point. Do not attribute a historical author's words to the website itself.
State when the displayed image is a colorized, restored or otherwise modified derivative, and identify the original black-and-white photograph as the archival source when available.
