Hi Sylvia,
We are also using the full Bibliography Module to capture citation information.
It is useful because it provides a TMS BibID.
But even better the full-fledged Bib Module accommodates for recording identifiers for the publications, which in turn can become links (great for Linked Open
Data). We use Alternate Numbers for that and we capture OCLC numbers any time we can.

At the National Gallery of Art we link Constituents to Bibliography records with either Author or Subject roles.
Here is a screenshot of the Constituent Assistant from the Bibliography module.
We use the Statement field on the Cross-Reference tab for the bibliographic citation.
The underscores in the citation are translated as begin italics and end italics for our web site. It’s an idiosyncrasy in how we handle our data that has a long
history here.
This allows us to publish Bibliography citations for former owners on our web site.
Hope this is helpful.

Dear colleagues
We are currently planning a significant project to augment our TMS records here at the National Gallery, and so this question of attributing information
has also been concerning me as I get to grips with the system (I started using it in February). So I, too, would be grateful to hear from anyone who’s been entering this kind of information, or has plans to do so.
With best wishes
Rupert

Hi, Sylvia -
As far as what NARA would call 'source notes' for Constituents (we are just now fleshing out standards/procedures for constituent authority records), we plan to create text entries, type Source Note, date is the date
the text entry was created, author is who created the source note, text is the actual citation. Hope this helps?

Hi All,
We are using TMS 2014 and are starting to flesh out some of our constituent records and are wondering where other institutions who use TMS 2014 are placing citations/reference information?
Sincerely,
Sylvia
