NOTE ON SOURCES

NOTE ON SOURCES GENERAL Except for the sources cited specifically in the text and notes, which are included in the reference list at the back of the book, and the other important source documents listed below by chapter, the narrative is based on MDRC annual reports; memorandums, meeting minutes, and project reports from MDRC files and from Judith M. Gueron’s and Howard Rolston’s (or their colleagues’) personal files; and retrospective author interviews with the major actors in the story, conducted between 2006 and 2012. Sources for all direct quotes are cited, with page numbers in text and full publication information in the reference list, with the following exceptions: • Quotes from MDRC annual reports are noted as such, by year, in the text. • Quotes introduced in the present tense and identified as the speaker “recalling,” “remembering,” “now seeing it this way,” and similar language are from the 2006 to 2012 personal interviews by the authors, as noted above (see the appendix for complete alphabetical listing by interviewee and method of interview—in person, by telephone, or by email). • Quotes from newspaper articles are noted by date in the text.
