When you make a photocopy of a page from a pertinent book at a library or archive, make a note of the publication information for your source citation.
Include:

-- Title
-- City and state (and country if foreign) of publication
-- Name of publisher
-- Year of publication
-- Other appropriate information (volume number, edition, etc.)
-- Repository where you located the material
-- The date you accessed the material
