Welcome to the Chicago Manual of Style Page

 The guidelines include a style for making in-text citations and a bibliography.

Most Chicago Styles require footnotes or end notes at the end of a quote or paraphrase.

To make a Notes page:

If you cite or paraphrase a work, you must use either footnotes or endnotes to document your sources. Footnotes and endnotes are composed the same way, the difference between the two is that footnotes come at the bottom of each page and endnotes are put on a separate page called Notes at the end of your paper. Both footnotes and endnotes are numbered with the first line indented.

One author:

        1. Author's Name, The Title Underlined (City of publication: Publisher, Date), page number.

        1. Bartok J. Aniston, The Purpose of the Fuzzy Slipper Industry in Southern Ohio (Kalamazoo: Kungston Press, 2002), 104.

To make a Bibliography page:

• In Chicago Style, the author of the sources comes first in the entry. Entries are put in alphabetical order. 
• If there is no author, put the entry in alphabetical order according to its title excluding A, An and The.
• Indent lines after the first one.
• All lines should be double spaced, with no extra spacing between entries.
