1. Chicago Style… and no, unfortunately we don’t mean pizza.

Chicago Style… and no, unfortunately we don’t mean pizza.

2. Citation gives you credibility and nobility.
MLA; stands for Modern Language Association. Highlights Authors
APA is used a lot in colleges. It stands for American Psychological Association, highlights the Date..
Chicago Manual Style, or Turabian Style, is 2-way, super-duper method of citation, used mostly for History. You use a footnote spot AND a citation list at the end. This style emphasizes the AUTHOR and the DATE. “Notes and Bibliography Style”

3. Vocabulary:
Bibliographic data: Bits and pieces of information about a work, like the author’s name, the title, the year it was published, etc.
*EASYBIB isn’t always easy!

4. Planning your Research and Organizing your Information
Impeccable Processes:
-Take down bibliographic data first, then add all your notes from that source, including page#’s.
- Once finished with that source, move on to another source and a new notes page.
-Create a research folder (preferably electronically)
-Use my note-taking sheets and your Google Drive to organize your notes.

5. Notes and Numbers
In-text citation requires both a note-number (that comes at the end of the excerpt) and a footnote. *The citation is not a full citation, those comes at the end.
Excerpt is the bit of information, or the note(s) that you took down from a source during your research. *Summarizing others’ thoughts...
Footnotes work in what I like to think of as marital relationships with your little numbers and your excerpts from research materials.

6. Footnotes Footnotes protect YOU, as the writer.
-Contain abbreviated version of bibliographic data.
-Provide commentary
-Insurance against plagiarism

7. Citing Bibliographic Data in the Footnotes-- Different from the Bibliography!!!
Book: #. Firstname Lastname, Title of Book (Place of publication: Publisher, Year of publication), page number.
Website: #. Firstname Lastname, “Title of Webpage,” Publishing Organization or Name of Website in Italics, publication date and/or access date, URL.
Gale Source:#. Author(s), “Title of Article,” Title of Publication/Periodical Volume and/or issue number (Date/year): Page Numbers, URL:....

8. Authors and Titles and Publishers, Oh my!
Chicago style for Books:
Last name, First name. Title. City of Publisher: Publisher, Year Published.
Basic bibliographic info that you need for everything!!!
2 Authors: Last name, First name and First Name Last Name (Tricky!)
More than 2 Authors: Lastname, Firstname, Firstname Lastname and Firstname LastName. (See the pattern yet?)

9. Internet Sources Chicago Style for Websites:
Author (or Sponsor/owner). Title. URL.
Chicago style for a Webpage:
Author. “Title of Page.” Title of Website. URL.
Chicago Style for the Online periodicals/Gale Databases: Basically the same as MLA. You can still cite from Gale, just use one of their providers, or switch stuff around,

Hanging Indent!

Ibid This notation is used when you are using the same note in succession SAVES TIME! “Ibid., Page #”
