Overview Chicago-style referencing can refer to one of two referencing systems recommended by The Chicago Manual of Style (2010): (1) Author-Date Referencing or (2) Notes and Bibliography. The following guide is for the Chicago Notes and Bibliography Referencing System. Please note that British/Australian English punctuation is used throughout this guide. The rules for punctuation in American English are slightly different. The notes and bibliography style is preferred by many in the humanities, including those in literature, history and the arts. This style presents bibliographic information in notes and, often, a bibliography. It accommodates a variety of sources, including esoteric ones less appropriate to the author-date system. Referencing correctly according to a particular style (whether that be APA, MLA, IEEE or any other style) involves presenting the publication information required exactly in the way proscribed by the style. This means knowing which publication information is required, how and where it should appear in the reference, what punctuation is necessary and where this should be placed. Thus, when formatting your references/in-text citations to a particular style and reviewing example references/in-text citations, pay close attention to the order of information, how each detail is displayed, and the punctuation used and where this is placed (i.e., whether publication titles should be placed within quotation marks [if so, are they single or double?], italicised, have a capital letter for all the main words in the title or just the initial word, and so forth). Footnotes: General notes The major features of footnotes in Chicago s Notes and Bibliography Referencing Style are: The notes can be footnotes, placed at the foot of the page in which the note appears, or endnotes, placed at the end of the document. Endnotes can also be placed at the end of each chapter, particularly when the chapters are written by different authors. The note flag is placed after punctuation, like this. 1 This is incorrect 1. Multiple citations can be included in one note, separated by a semi-colon. In notes, author names are presented in the order First Last (e.g. Jane Smith and Tom Franklin). In the reference list, the first author s name is inverted to Smith, Jane. Page ranges should include only the necessary numbers (e.g. 20 2, 121 3, 16 22). For subsequent citations, use the authors last names (family names) and a short title. You should use quotation marks or italics for the title, as in the first citation. For example, a book uses italics, while a journal article uses quotation marks. If you are citing the same source two or more times consecutively, use Ibid. for subsequent citations, rather than the author names and short title. If the page number is different, this should be noted (e.g. Ibid., 23). All effort should be made to track down original sources. When the original source is not available, its author(s) and year of publication should be cited with a secondary source. editex.com 2015 2
Quotations of five lines or more should be formatted as block quotations and not enclosed in quotation marks. editex.com 2015 3

Bibliography: General notes Types A full bibliography that includes all the works cited is recommended by Chicago but other kinds of bibliography include a selected bibliography, an annotated bibliography, a bibliographic essay and a list of works by one author. Format A full bibliography should be titled Bibliography. If no additional works are included, it may be titled Works Cited or Literature Cited. Chicago style recommends singlespacing your references and leaving one blank line between each entry. Entries should also be hanging by 1.27 cm. For example: Acier, Marcel, ed., From Spanish Trenches: Recent Letters from Spain. London: Cresset Press, 1939. Fyrth, Jim and Sally Alexander, eds., Women s Voices from the Spanish Civil War, London: Lawrence & Wishart, 1991. Capitalisation In the reference list, use title case (e.g. The Last Train from Madrid) for all titles. The exception to this rule is foreign-language titles: if you are unfamiliar with rules for capitalisation in that language, only capitalise the first letter of foreign-language titles. Order References must be ordered alphabetically. Single author entries are placed before multiple-author entries beginning with the same name. Multiple-author entries beginning with the same name are listed in alphabetical order according to the coauthors surnames, regardless of how many co-authors there are. For example: Smith, Lisa. Book Title. Smith, Lisa and Jonathon Johnson. Book Title. Smith, Lisa and Erin Sachdev. Journal Title. For entries by the same author(s), editor(s) or translator(s), use a 3-em dash to replace the name(s) after the first entry. Note that this only applies to names listed in the same order. Abbreviations such as ed. and trans. should be indicated for each entry. Smith, Lisa and Erin Sachdev. Journal Title.. Journal Title., trans. Book Title. editex.com 2015 8
, Book Title. Smith, Lisa and Jonathon Johnson, eds. 1982. Journal Title. Multiple publications by the same author/s should be ordered alphabetically by title. Preston, Paul. Juan Carlos: A People s King. London, United Kingdom: HarperCollins, 2004a.. Juan Carlos: Steering Spain from Dictatorship to Democracy. London, United Kingdom: W. W. Norton & Co, 2004b. Multiple works by the same author/s published in different years should be ordered chronologically in ascending order. For example: Preston, P. We saw Spain die: Foreign correspondents in the Spanish Civil War. London, United Kingdom: Constable and Robinson, 2008.. The Spanish Holocaust. New York, NY W. W. Norton & Co, 2012. Subdivisions Chicago style does not recommend the use of subdivisions. Books, journal articles and online sources should not be listed separately. Some subdivisions can be used if they are necessary to guide the reader. For example, in a thesis about a particular author, that author s works could be listed separately to other works. Authors names Chicago style stipulates the use of authors full names, not just initials and surnames, where possible. Abbreviations Abbreviate nouns such as editor (ed.), editors (eds.) and translator (trans.). However, spell out phrases such as edited by and translated by ; they should be capitalised if they follow a full stop. Use standard abbreviations for nouns such as number (no.) and volume (vol.) and phrases such as no date (n.d.). Place of publication Indicate the city of publication. If two or more cities are given, only the first city is needed. Use English names for foreign cities where possible (e.g. Vienna, not Wien ). State, province or country abbreviations can be added if the city could be confused with another city of the same name (the exception is Washington DC, which should always appear with the letters DC ). For example: Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press editex.com 2015 9
