Hi Colette,

It sounds like it would be best in this case to follow the format for citing documents from archives. The format varies depending on what information is available. Based on what you’ve described, I would suggest giving information in this order in a note:

Transcript of speech given at [Location of speech] by [Name of the mayor], [Date of speech], [Location within the archive] (e.g. something like “File 35” if the archive is organized in this way), [Name of archive], [Location of archive] (e.g. Athens).

The speech is held in the collection of records for this mayor’s administration. The speech has a date and location listed on the first page. The year listed is 1967. There is not a corresponding audiovisual recording of the speech. There is nothing on the speech pages to indicate that they are a transcript written after the speech.

How would I cite this speech?
