Guide to Citation

Use Chicago Style for citations and bibliography

For citing sources in footnotes:

•Author's name(s); then comma; then title, (publication data in parentheses), comma and page numbers.

Example: John M. Mackenzie, The Empire of Nature (Manchester: Manchester University Press, 1997), 44-46.

• If the book is cited again later you can use this shortened form:

Example: Mackenzie, Empire of Nature, 97.

• If you cite the book several times in a row, even if the page numbers are different, use the abbreviation of the Latin word meaning the same place:

Example: Ibid., 102.

• Article titles appear in quotation marks, and the journal is underlined. The title of the journal is followed by the volume number and colon, then page number. The year of the volume can be added in perentheses.

Example: Paul Pickering, "Class Without Words: Symbolic Communication in the Chartist Movement,"

Past and Present 112 (August 1986): 150.

For bibliography:

•Alphabetized by author's last name. Last name appears first, followed by first name and a period. Title follows author. Publication information follows title.

•For articles, title appears in quotes, followed by period, then the title of the journal. The title of the journal is followed by the volume number and page numbers

•If there is more than one work by a single author, works appear in order of title.

•If there is no author, organize by title
