Transcription

1 Beaman Library : Chicago Style Often used in history and humanities courses, the Chicago style employs footnotes or endnotes to provide complete publication information and is based upon The Chicago Manual of Style, 15 th ed. Consult this source or Easy Writer if you have further questions. TITLE PAGE Include the full title of your paper, your name, the course title, the instructor's name, and the date. Do not number the title page but count it in the manuscript numbering; that is, the first page of the text will be numbered 2. The Hidden History of the Haitian Revolution Sarah Hildenbrand History 2230 Dr. Halsford 18 August 2007 STYLE Margins and Spacing o Use one-inch margins on the top, bottom, and sides of the page. o Double space the entire manuscript, including block quotations. o Block quotations (quotes of at least one-hundred words or more than eight lines) always begin a new line and may be indented or set in a smaller type or different font than the rest of the text. No quotation marks are used. Pagination o Using Arabic numerals, numbers are placed in the upper right corner of the manuscript. Depending on your professor s preferences, you may also include your last name or title of your paper before the page numbers.

2 CITING SOURCES IN THE TEXT When documenting sources in the Chicago style, endnotes or footnotes may be used according to preferences. Footnotes appear at the end of each page, and endnotes are located at the end of the paper, before the bibliography. Every time you use a source, you will need to indicate that information was borrowed within the text by creating a footnote or endnote and include the source on your bibliography. Your notes will always proceed in consecutive order (1,2,3,4 ); you will never reuse a number, even if you use the same source more than once. Microsoft Word automatically numbers for you. In-text Citation Maryse Condé s I, Tituba: Black Witch of Salem is an example of how Caribbean women s writing in the mid-twentieth century became a quest for a female ancestor in response to prior male writing. 7 This novel retells the story of the Salem witch trials from the perspective of the West Indian slave, Tituba. Footnotes or Endnotes The first time you cite a source, you must include all publication information and the page number where the borrowed text or idea can be found. The first line of a note is indented. To see an example of how the quotation above would be cited in a footnote, see the bottom of the page. Please note, however, that you need a citation any time you borrow information from a source, regardless of whether or not you quote. Subsequent footnotes or endnotes only require the author s last name, a shortened version of the title if the title is longer than four words, and the page number(s) on which the information was found. When you have consecutive notes from the same source, you may simply include Ibid. (meaning, in the same place) and the page number for the second note. 14. Paquet, Caribbean Autobiography, Ibid., 90. Bibliography The bibliography comes last in your paper and should include every work cited in your notes. It may also include works that you consulted but did not cite. Here are some guidelines for your bibliography: You should title the page Bibliography at the top, center of the page. Entries are alphabetized by authors last names or by title of the work if there is no author. The first line of each entry is at the left margin; additional lines are indented ½ inch. Entries are single-spaced, but there is a space between each entry. 7.

Caribbean Autobiography: Cultural Identity and Self Representation. Madison: Univ. of Wisconsin Press, Preparing an Endnotes Page: If you choose to use endnotes instead of footnotes, you must have an endnotes page. Here are some guidelines for your endnotes. Note: If you have an endnotes page, you still need to follow with a bibliography page, as well. Number your notes consecutively (just as you would with footnotes). Center the heading Notes on the top of the first page. Only indent ½ inch on the first line of each entry. (Indents are the opposite of the bibliography.) Begin the note with the Arabic numeral corresponding to the number in the text. Follow the number with a period and a space. Individual notes are single spaced, but double space between notes.
