Citing Books: Turabian Style 12 Basic IQ Skills
2
Information Quality Four pillars of IQ Find Retrieve Analyze Use Correctly citing resources helps you use information in a scholarly and ethical manner.
3
Academic Writing Requires acknowledgement of source material. Employs widely used conventions to cite sources. APTS expects students to understand how to cite sources and to do so using the Turabian style guide.
4
Turabian Style at APTS We use notes-bibliography style: – Footnotes at the bottom of pages – A bibliography at the end of the paper See Turabian section 15.3.1
5
Today’s Focus The correct format for citing books: – What you put in the footnote – What you put in the bibliography
6
Footnote: First Mention Author, title, facts of publication, and page numbers 1. Bruce Gordon, Calvin (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2009), vii-xi. 2. David H. Jensen, Responsive Labor: A Theology of Work (Louisville: Westminster John Knox Press, 2006), 18- 19.
7
Footnote: Details Author’s first name then surname Use italic font for the title Put parentheses around place of publication, press and year Don’t use “p.2”; simply record page numbers in numerals Indent the note like a paragraph The only period is at the end
8
Footnote: Subsequent Citations Throughout the rest of the paper, use a shortened form (author surname, title, page or pages). Thus: 3. Gordon, Calvin, 25-39. 4. Jensen, Responsive Labor, 57. 5. Ibid., 13-14.
9
Citation in Bibliography The entry in the bibliography contains the same information as in a footnote (first mention), but in a different form: Jensen, David H. Responsive Labor: A Theology of Work. Louisville: Westminster John Knox Press, 2006.
10
Bibliography: Details Last name of author, then first name No parentheses around publication information Uses periods between elements No page numbers Uses hanging indent (first line is flush left; other lines are indented); this command in MS Word is under paragraph formatting
