Chicago Style

1、Chicago Style Introduction

These OWL resources will help you learn to use the Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS) citation and format style. This section contains resources on in-text citations and the Bibliography page, as well as CMOS sample papers, slide presentations, and the CMOS classroom poster.

CMOS Overview and Workshop

This workshop provides an overview of CMOS and where to find help with different CMOS resources. It provides an annotated list of links to all our CMOS materials and a CMOS overview. It is an excellent place to start to learn about CMOS format.

CMOS Formatting and Style Guide

The Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS) is most commonly used by those working in literature, history, and the arts. This resource, revised according to the 17th edition of CMOS, offers examples for the general format of CMOS research papers, footnotes/endnotes, and the bibliography. For more information, please consult the Chicago Manual of Style (17th edition).

2、CMOS Style Workshop

Welcome to the OWL Workshop on Chicago Style! This workshop will introduce you to the Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS) as it relates to writing and formatting research papers.

Note: This workshop should answer most of your basic questions about using CMOS. However, if you are writing a complex document, such as a thesis or lengthy manuscript, or if you have questions specific to writing tasks that aren't covered on the OWL, you should consult The Chicago Manual of Style(17th edition), which you can find at your local library or at most major bookstores.

The CMOS also has a website that that answers some frequently asked questions and offers extra advice.

What is CMOS?

CMOS establishes written standards of communication concerning:

  • formatting and page layout

  • stylistic techniques (e.g. footnotes, quotations)

  • citing sources

  • preparing a manuscript for publication

There are two different documentation styles in CMOS: the Notes-Bibliography system (NB), which uses footnotes, and the Author-Date system, which uses parenthetical citations within the text itself. These two styles are nearly identical in content, but different in form.

Why Use CMOS?

Aside from simplifying the work of editors by having everyone use the same format for a given publication, using CMOS makes it easier for readers to understand a text by providing a familiar structure they can follow. Abiding by CMOS's standards as a writer will allow you to:

  • Provide readers with cues they can use to follow your ideas more efficiently and to locate information of interest

  • Allow readers to focus more on your ideas by eliminating unfamiliar formatting

  • Establish your credibility or ethos in the field by demonstrating an awareness of your audience and their needs as fellow researchers

Who Should Use CMOS?

CMOS describes rules for writers and students of:

  • History

  • English

  • Art

Before you adopt this style for your paper, you should check to see what citation style your discipline uses in its journals and student research.

CMOS Formatting and Writing Style

Start by becoming familiar with the general formatting requirements of CMOS, as well as the different standards for notation that CMOS writers are expected to use. Because CMOS is different than other writing styles, you should pay attention to everything from general paper layout to word choice. The following pages will introduce you to some of the basic requirements of CMOS to get you headed in the right direction.
