EasyWriter Resources / Documenting Sources / Chicago Style: In-Text Citations, Notes, and Bibliographic Entries In Chicago style, use superscript numbers (1) to mark citations in the text.
Number citations sequentially throughout the text; each should correspond to a note that contains either publication
information about the source cited or explanatory or supplemental material not included in the main text.
In the text
Sweig argues that Castro and Che Guevara were not the only key players in the Cuban Revolution of the late 1950s.19 In the first note
19. Julia Sweig, Inside the Cuban Revolution (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2002), 9. In subsequent notes
After giving complete information the first time you cite a work, shorten any additional references
to that work: list only the author's name followed by a comma, a shortened version of the title followed by a comma,
and the page number. If the reference is to the same source cited in the previous note, you can use the Latin
abbreviation Ibid. (for "in the same place") instead of the name and title.
19. Julia Sweig, Inside the Cuban Revolution (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2002), 9. 20. Ibid., 13. 21. Ferguson, "Comfort of Being Sad," 63. 22. Sweig, Cuban Revolution, 21. The alphabetical list of the sources in the paper is usually titled Bibliography.
If Sources Consulted, Works Cited, or Selected Bibliography better describes your list, however, any of these
titles is acceptable.
In the bibliographic entry for a source, include the same information as in the first note for that source,
but omit the specific page reference. However, give the first author's name last name first, followed by a comma and the
first name; separate the main elements of the entry with periods rather than commas; type the first line flush with the left margin and
indent subsequent lines of each entry; and do not enclose the publication information for books in parentheses.
List bibliographic entries alphabetically by authors' last names or, if an author is unknown, by the first major word in the title.
In the bibliography
Sweig, Julia. Inside the Cuban Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2002. The following examples demonstrate how to format both notes and bibliographic entries
according to Chicago style. The note, which is numbered, appears first; the bibliographic entry,
which is not numbered, appears below the note.
