chicago referencing examplesRMIT University LibraryUpdated: 16 January 2018Important:?This is a guide only. To avoid losing marks:Confirm referencing requirements of your school with your lectureUse The Chicago Manual of Style. 16th ed. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2010 to clarify referencing rules or if you need more examples. The guide is based on this publication. The University of Chicago has developed the Chicago style of referencing. There have been several editions of the Chicago Manual of Style to aid authors in the preparation of manuscripts. There are two systems outlined by the Chicago referencing style: Author-Date and Notes-Bibliography. This guide use examples in the author-date system. The author-date system requires in-text citations within the paper, along with a full bibliographic entry in the reference list at the end of the paper.IN-TEXT REFERENCES_____________________________________________________________________General rules______________________________________________________________________Enclose the author's last name, year of publication and page number(s) in parentheses.Example: (Freeman 2017, 72)For a reference with two or three authors, list the last names, year of publication and, if possible, page numbers.Example: (Edwards, Garden and Jennings 2013, 73)When citing 4 or more authors list the last name for the first author only, followed by et al..Example: (Freeman et al. 2017, 72)When editors, translators, or compilers are used as the author, do not include their role (trans., ed., comp.) in the in-text citation.When the reference list has works by authors with the same last name, include their first initial in the in-text citation.Example: (A. Nelson 2015, 86) (B. Nelson 2013, 101)If an author has published multiple works in the same year, alphabetise the titles in the reference list and then add a, b, c, etc. to the year.(Example: Dickens 2008a, 10) (Dickens 2008b, 91)To cite more than one reference in a single in-text citation, separate the references by semicolons. If the works are by the same author, use just the year and separate with a comma.Example: (Dickens 2008, 122; Lee 1998, 81) When using a direct quote from a reference page number(s) must be cited. To cite specific page(s), add a comma and the page number(s). Example: (White 2011, 41-43) REFERENCE LIST_________________________________________________________________________Use a reference list to include all of the publications you have acknowledged at the end of your work, and use the heading References or Reference List on a new page. General rules_________________________________________________________________________All sources appearing in the reference list must be ordered alphabetically by surname of the first author, or title if no author is identified.The name of the first author is inverted (i.e. Charles Dickens to Dickens, Charles); subsequent author’s names are given in the form in which they appear in the original source publication.The bibliography should be double spaced and hanging indents used for each entry. A hanging indent is where the first line starts at the left margin and subsequent lines are indented about 5 spaces. There are no line spaces between references.Italics is the preferred format for titles of books, journals and videos. Article and chapter titles are put in double quotation marks.Capitalisation within the Chicago style requires all major words to be first letter uppercase.
