Chicago Manual of Style (CMS)
Author & Date/References
Albert S. Cook Library
Research & Instruction
The Chicago Manual of Style 16th edition [2010] , also known as CMS, was used to create this guide,
which illustrates examples in the author-date/references format. Material requiring a citation uses an
in-text citation within your paper along with a full bibliographic entry in the reference list which occurs at
the end of your paper. For each author-date citation in the text, there must be a corresponding entry in
the reference list for that source. For additional examples , see Chicago Manual of Style, 16th edition on Reserve at Cook Library 9Z253 U69 2010, and also available online.
In-text Citations
Within the in-text citation, the author’s last name is listed first, followed by the year of publication of
the source, then the page number noting the location of the cited material within the original source.
For periodical articles, a month and day may be included after the title. In this guide, the in-text citation
examples are shown within parentheses and follow the bibliographic citations listed below.
Reference list citations for books should include the following information in this order whenever
possible: {p. 693-694}
1. Full name of author(s) or editor as author or corporate/institutional author
2. Publication year
3. Title and subtitle
4. Editor, compiler, or translator in addition to author
5. Edition (only if not the first edition)
6. Volume information: total number of volumes of an entire multivolume work cited, individual
volume of an multivolume work, title of individual volume if different from set
7. Series title and number (if applicable)
8. Facts of publication: city and publisher
9. Page information (if applicable)
10. For electronic books: URL or DOI [digital object identifier], or type of medium (Kindle, etc.)
***Remember to single space after all commas, colons, and periods.
Note: Single spacing is used in this guide for brevity; the 2.8 Formatting rule on p. 59 of CMS states
that all references and the paper itself should be double spaced. The final authority for the
bibliographic form (including spacing) in your paper is your professor.
