1 Saint Ann s School Library Brooklyn, NY Turabian Citation style for 8th & 9th Grade Term Papers (adapted from Kate L. Turabian's A Manual For Writers, 7th Edition) Your papers will include a bibliography (a list of all the works you drew on to write your paper) and notes (numbered source citations that are keyed to particular facts in your paper). In the text of the paper, the notes are indicated with small numbers in superscript meaning they re above the line. The notes themselves can be endnotes (meaning they appear at the end of the paper, in numerical order) or footnotes (meaning they are arranged at the end of each page, in numerical order). For notes, indent the first line. For bibliography entries, intent all lines except the first. (FYI: The numbers at the end of many of the notes refer to the page or pages your information comes from even though there is no p. to clue you in to that fact.)
