Chicago style writing uses endnotes as a form of

in-text citations.

Use an endnote to signify information, quotes, and

statistics included from sources.

Every time you use info from a source (even if you

have used that source before), use a NEW number,

starting at superscript “1” and going upward

numerically.

Endnotes should be placed after the clause or

sentence they are referencing.

Endnotes are placed AFTER punctuation (except

dashes).

Use a standard, readable font like Times

New Roman in 10 to 12 point font.

Single space all text, including endnotes

and block quotes.

Use block quote format for quotes longer

than three lines.

Use header on first page only: center title

over both columns, use

a rule line under title, insert your name and

audience on right and left.

Use numeric page numbers in the upper

right-hand corner. No page number on first page.

After the body of the writing, include a section entitled

“Endnotes” directly in your concluding column.

Center the title “Endnotes” in the column, directly

following your writing.

Single space citations, double space between each

new endnote.

Number your sources with a full-size, non-raised

numeric and a period corresponding to endnotes

used in writing.

Indent the first line of each source.

If the next sequential endnote is from the same

source as the previous number, write, “Ibid., page

number.”

If you use the above source again for a later

endnote, you must rewrite the whole source.

Writing Guide for 2-column format

Kali Knudsen

Place endnotes AFTER ending punctuation

These two endnotes are from the SAME source, but they each get a DIFFERENT number

If you use same source later on, you have to rewrite the whole source.

Use “Ibid., page number” when source is same as previous number.

Page Number

When siting a figure, create a new line under the figure caption and write “Data source.” Then, simply

add the superscript endnote directly following “source”

Endnotes 12 and 13 refer to the same

source, but they each get a NEW number.

When citing sources on your “Endnotes” page, remember:

Names are written in first, last order (FLO).

If any sources are accessed online, include

the URL at the end of the citation.

For online sources, if date of publication is

not listed, include the date accessed..

For online sources, if the author is not listed,

just move to the next part of the endnote.

Author name (FLO) (if given). “Title of Webpage or

Article.” Publishing Organization or Name of Website.

Publication date and/or access date. URL.

Author name (FLO). “Article Title.” Newspaper,

Magazine, or Journal Name. Date of Publication. Page

Number.

Author name (FLO). Title of Book. (Place of

Publication: Publisher, year), page number.

“Endnotes” centered in

ending column directly after

the end of your writing.

Use “Ibid., page number” when source is same as previous number.

Indent first line of every source.

Single space sources. Double space between

sources.
