The Chicago Reference Style
Chicago Manual of Style Documentation Approaches
(Endnotes OR author-date)
The Chicago Manual of Style provides guidelines for two different citation systems.¹ Consult your lecturer to find out if a Chicago Manual style is used in your subject area, and if it is, check which system is preferred. The CMS 15th ed. has specific guidelines on citing Internet sources.² More information about electronic sources can be found on the Chicago Manual’s Q & A Web page.³
Examples are based on: 1. The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th ed. (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2003), chap. 16. (hereafter cited as CMS). Reference Z 253 Chi 2003 2. CMS, chap. 17. 3.

1. Humanities style – Notation system (using endnotes)
All sources (for example each quotation, paraphrase or summary) are consecutively numbered with a superscript numeral in the text. The bibliographic information for each source appears as numbered endnotes at the end of the text – or footnotes at the bottom of each page. There is usually no need for an additional bibliography, unless footnotes are used. (If a bibliography is required, see the humanities style recommended overleaf. For the way to use footnotes, refer to chap. 16 of CMS).
