TURABIAN, 7TH Edition (A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations)
In Turabian, you will cite your sources using one of the following: #1. NOTES-BIBLIOGRAPHY (Humanities) #2. PARENTHETICAL CITATIONS-REFERENCE LIST (Social Sciences) If you are uncertain which style to use in your paper, consult your professor. Note: The 7th edition of Turabian conforms to The Chicago Manual of Style, 16th edition. #1. NOTES-BIBLIOGRAPHY BASICS Notes-bibliography-style citations have three elements (a, b, and c below): a. A superscript number at the end of the sentence in which you refer to the source. Example: Susie Queue argues that “you need to know on which side your bread is buttered.”1 b. Notes arranged numerically either at the bottom of each page (footnotes) or at the end of the manuscript (endnotes). Notes include complete bibliographic information when cited for the first time. Example: 1. Susie Queue, Bread Buttering 101: How to Get What You Want (Norman, OK: University of Oklahoma Press, 2012), 122. Subsequent citations from the same source should be shortened: Examples: 5. Ibid. (citing from the same page; ibidem means “in the same place”) 5. Ibid., 68 (citing from a different page) 5. Queue, Bread Buttering, 155. (citing from the same source, but with intervening citations)
c. A bibliography at the end of the paper that includes the same information you used in the note, but in a slightly different format. In the bibliography, list every source you cited and sometimes others you consulted but did not cite. Example: Queue, Susie. Bread Buttering 101: How to Get What You Want. Norman, OK: University of Oklahoma Press, 2012. NOTES-BIBLIOGRAPHY SPECIFICS: Journal Articles (print): • Note: 3. Kathleen M.
