Chicago QuickGuide 16th Edition What is Chicago style? The Chicago Manual of Style presents two basic documentation systems, the humanities style (notes and bibliography) and the author-date system. Each style is favored by different academic groups. The humanities style is preferred in literature, history, and the arts. This style presents bibliographic information in notes and, often, a bibliography. The more concise author-date system is used by those in the physical, natural, and social sciences. In this system, sources are cited in the text, usually in parentheses, by author’s last name and date of publication. Also included is a list of references, where full bibliographic information is provided. Using Chicago style Below are some common examples of materials cited in both styles. Each example is given first in humanities style (a note [N], followed by a bibliographic entry [B]) and then in author-date style (an in-text citation [T], followed by a reference-list entry [R]). For numerous specific examples, see The Chicago Manual of Style, 16th edition or the Purdue OWL (http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/). Book Single Author N: 1.

Article in an online journal Note: Because online materials can potentially change URLs, Chicago prefers a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), when it is available, as opposed to the URL. DOIs are an attempt to provide stable, long-lasting links for online articles. They are unique to their documents and consist of a long alphanumeric code. Many, but not all, publishers will provide an article's DOI on the first page of the document. If the DOI is not available, provide the URL in place of the DOI. N: 1. William J.

Newspaper article Note: If a parenthetical reference to a newspaper article includes all the necessary bibliographic to lead a reader to the source, there is no need to cite it in a bibliography or reference list as well. Here is an example of how you could make a parenthetical reference that would not require a bibliographic or reference entry: In an article detailing the rebirth of Wall Street in the 30s and 40s, Ronald Parker indicates that mutual funds and their managers became the new vogue (Forbes, January 2011). If you wish to document the source in the more traditional way, follow the citations below. N: 10. John, Smith. “Microscopy in the Digital Age,” Rampart (Harborton, IN), February 13, 2009. B: Smith, John. “Microscopy in the Digital Age.” Rampart (Harborton, IN), February 13, 2009. T: (Smith 2009) R: Smith, John. 2009. Microscopy in the Digital Age. Rampart, February 13.
