{{languages|Sources in GRAMPSGramps}}[[Sources]] are important, multiple and can be shared. They are often shared between events. They may also be grouped under a [[Repositories in GRAMPSGramps|repository]] (archive, library, folder, etc...). They can also have multiple [[citations]].
Gramps gives us a lot of freedom for classification. This is not necessarily an advantage. How then should you go about adding sources and using the power of Gramps?
# We enter the details in the event field : ''Death - 1809-05-12 - New-York, NY, USA''
# We add a source : ''Death certificate of X (died on 1809-05-12)''
# related to a [[Repositories in GRAMPSGramps|repository]] : ''Country Archives of New-York - call number: 6Mi5202''
# We check the entries.
# We may also add a date (''1809-05-13''), volume, page number and the reliability of the source. This information is specific to the way this event (''Death of Miss X'') is recorded in this source and is not part of the general information about the source. It is the citation data, which appears in '''Detailed reports''' as '''EndNotes'''.
