Chicago Citation Style QuickGuide Author-Date System

Chicago Citation Style QuickGuide Author-Date System Last update: November 23, 2018 Note: This guide is updated regularly. Instead of saving the PDF, please link here for the most current version. This guide is based on the 17 th edition (2017) of The Chicago Manual of Style. For further explanation and for more examples, please consult the Manual, which is available both in print and online. Every effort has been made to ensure that the information in this QuickGuide is accurate and current. However, in case of discrepancies, the Manual is the authoritative source for citation information. The Chicago style provides two systems for giving credit to the sources you use. Choose either: 1. the notes-bibliography system: use this system to create footnotes or endnotes for specific citations and a bibliography at the end of your work, arranged in alphabetical order, that provides full details about your sources. For this system, see the Chicago Notes-Bibliography System QuickGuide. OR 2. the author-date system: use this system to create specific parenthetical citations throughout your work and a reference list at the end of your work, arranged in alphabetical order, that provides full details about your cited sources. The examples in this QuickGuide follow the author-date system. General guidelines for using the author-date system: In-text citation are usually structured like this: (Author s Last Name publication date, page(s) cited) Reference list entries usually contain, in the following order: o Author/creator information (for examples of works by one, two, three, or more authors, see page 2 of this QuickGuide) o Publication date o Title information (titles may be in quotation marks or italicized, depending on the source type) o Publication information (e.g., place of publication and publisher name for a book; volume and issue number for a journal article; DOI [Digital Object Identifier] or URL for an online resource) Reference lists are always single-spaced. See the Manual (Figure 15.1, p. 894) for an example. Copyright 2018, Augustana Campus Library, University of Alberta 1
