using Tinderbox to manage citations

Hi all,

I find myself studying again, this time in a more humanities-
oriented course,
and this has brought with it a new problem that I haven't encountered
before:
I'm reading all manner of different things (mostly books, but
occasionally journal
articles), and I need to keep track of what I've read, and then be
able to cite it
correctly in essays, and put together bibliographies etc.

It seems to me that Tinderbox would be good at this: I was wondering
if anyone
had any ideas about how to structure the document:
should a book be a note, and have some attributes like
- title
- author surname
- author firstname
- city of publication
- published
- year of publication

so that I could reference the works correctly, and then put page
numbers and quotes
into different categories?

are there other things that I should be considering before I
structure the document?

thanks in advance
