Notes are numbered as they appear in the text of your paper. The following is an Endnote example. Endnotes are placed on a separate page at the end of your paper, just before your bibliography.
If you use footnotes, do not try to place them on the page by using the "footer" option of your word processor. (The content in the "footer" will appear at the bottom of each printed page and will be the same on each page. That is not what you will want.) Instead, estimate the amount of space you will need at the end of the text on the page to list the footnotes in the text.
"Put a short rule between the last line of your text and the first footnote on each page. If a footnote runs over to the next page, break it in midsentence, so that readers do not think the note is finished and overlook the part on the next page" (Section 16.3.4, p. 152).
