If so, you can of course use footnotes and endnotes in the same document. You can also use a customized numbering of the endnotes to, e.g. URL1, URL2, etc., to signal clearly to the reader what type of information they would be flipping to. | |

If yes, then I'm assuming you also wouldn't favour embedded hyperlinks nor endnotes with backreferences. If no, backrefs could alleviate the problem. I do have to concede that I detest IEEE citations; not sure what I think about them when used solely for URLs. | |
