LibGuides: Citing references: Different styles & systems of referencing (2024)

Chicago

Chicago style referencing offers two options for citations:

Notes and bibliography:a numbered style, where a number in the text corresponds to a footnoteor endnote containing the full reference, (as in Oxford referencing.) Abibliography lists all referenced sources, plus anything you read but didn'treference.

or

Author-date references: brief author-date citations are inserted in parentheses in the body of the text, (as in Harvard referencing.) A corresponding reference listwhich only includes sources you have cited in your text.

So if you are asked to use Chicago style referencing, it is especially important to check which format your department wants you to use - notes and bibliography or author-date. You should be able to find more information in your course or module handbook. If you cannot find anything there, do ask your course tutor.
