The author-date system is the second method of Chicago style citations. This citation format is typically used in physical, natural, and social sciences documents.
The Chicago author-date format consists of two components: in-text citations in the body text and a matching entry in the reference list, which is at the end of the academic work. The reference list provides complete bibliographic information about all the sources you’ve used throughout the text. Let’s take a look at each component more closely.
If you are using the author-date format, you will be required to add in-text citations within the body text. The convention is to add in-text citations at the end of sentences referencing sources.
Follow these guidelines to add Chicago style citations in your academic work:
See below for a Chicago style citation example with and without an author in parentheses. Here’s what a standard Chicago style in-text citation looks like:
The essay highlights the importance of readers contributing to a text’s discourse in the larger society (Barthes 1967).
If you’ve already referenced the author within the body text, you can write the Chicago parenthetical citation like this:
Barthes (1967) emphasizes the role of the reader in generating discourse about a text, rather than accepting the singular supremacy of the author’s intent.
To add a page number or page range, format the in-text citation as shown below:
(Barthes 1967 42) (Barthes 1967 42-44)
Each Chicago style in-text citation has a matching entry to the reference list at the end of the text. The list and the format of each entry largely follow the same format as the bibliography in the notes-bibliography section, with a few minor alterations. We will look at these below.
Follow these guidelines while creating a Chicago style reference list for your essay or paper:
See below for a list of Chicago style citation examples. We’ve included sample in-text citations and reference list entries for books, book chapters, websites, and journals, which are commonly used sources in the Chicago citation style.

Generate citations in Chicago style automatically, with MyBib!
A Chicago Citation Generator is a software tool that automatically generates citations and bibliographies in the Chicago citation style.
Citations can be created by entering an identifying piece of information about a source, such as a website URL, book ISBN, or journal article DOI to the generator. The generator will then create a fully formatted citation in the Chicago style containing all the required information for the source.
Chicago style citations are used to give credit to the authors of supporting work that has been used to write an academic paper or article.
The Chicago style is primarily used by college and university students studying business, history, social sciences, the fine arts, amongst others.
Citing sources is often an afterthought in paper writing because formatting citations correctly is time-consuming and confusing, and staying on top of source management manually can be hard. A citation generator makes this easier by:
In short, there is no reason not to use a citation generator in academic writing.

Published on May 10, 2021 by Jack Caulfield . Revised on April 9, 2024.
The basic formats for citing a book in a Chicago footnote and a bibliography entry are as follows:
Author last name, first name. . Place of publication: Publisher, Year. Rhys, Jean. . London: Penguin, 1997. | |
Author first name last name, : Subtitle (Place of publication: Publisher, Year), Page number(s). 1. Jean Rhys, (London: Penguin, 1997), 34. | |
Author last name, , Page number(s). 2. Rhys, , 54–55. |
Short notes always follow the same basic format. Full notes and bibliography entries contain additional information if the book specifies an edition, translator, or editor, and follow a specific format when citing an individual chapter in a book.
Note that book citations look slightly different in Chicago author-date style . In both cases, make sure to pay attention to the punctuation (e.g., commas , quotation marks , and periods) in your notes and citations.

Citing a specific edition, translated books, citing a chapter from a book, e-books and online books, citing books in chicago author-date style, frequently asked questions about chicago style citations.
Scholarly books often come in different editions with important differences in content. When edition information (e.g., “Second Edition,” “Revised Edition”) is stated on the cover and/or title page of the book, it should be included in your citation.
Edition information is always abbreviated and followed by a period (e.g., “2nd ed.” or “rev. ed.”).
Author last name, first name. : Subtitle. Edition. Place of publication: Publisher, Year. Donaldson, Bruce. . 3rd ed. Abingdon-on-Thames: Routledge, 2017. | |
Author first name last name, : Subtitle, edition. (Place of publication: Publisher, Year), Page number(s). 1. Bruce Donaldson, , 3rd ed. (Abingdon-on-Thames: Routledge, 2017), 35. | |

When a book is translated from another language, it’s important to identify the translator as well as the author. “Translated by” is abbreviated to “trans.” in the citation.
In the bibliography, the words “Translated by” are written in full. The translator’s name is not inverted, unlike that of the author.
Author last name, first name. : Subtitle. Translated by Translator first name last name. Place of publication: Publisher, Year. Mann, Thomas. . Translated by H. T. Lowe-Porter. London: Vintage, 1999. | |
Author first name last name, : Subtitle, trans. Translator first name last name (Place of publication: Publisher, Year), Page number(s). 1. Thomas Mann, , trans. H. T. Lowe-Porter (London: Vintage, 1999), 450. | |
Author last name, , Page number(s). 2. Mann, , 312. |
When referring to a chapter from a multi-authored book (such as an essay collection or anthology), cite the specific chapter rather than the whole book. This means listing the author and title of the chapter first, then providing information about the book as a whole.
The editor’s name is preceded by “ed.” in a note and by “edited by” in the bibliography. A page range is included in the bibliography entry to show the location of the chapter in the book.
A short note just lists the chapter title, not that of the book, and omits the editor’s name.
Author last name, first name. “Chapter Title.” In : Subtitle, edited by Editor first name last name, Page range. Place of publication: Publisher, Year. Stewart, Bob. “Wag of the Tail: Reflecting on Pet Ownership.” In , edited by John Jaimeson, 220–90. Toronto: Petlove Press, 2007. | |
Author first name last name, “Chapter Title,” in : Subtitle, ed. Editor first name last name (Place of publication: Publisher, Year), Page number(s). 1. Bob Stewart, “Wag of the Tail: Reflecting on Pet Ownership,” in , ed. John Jaimeson (Toronto: Petlove Press, 2007), 226. | |
Author last name, “Shortened Chapter Title,” Page number(s). 2. Stewart, “Wag of the Tail,” 275. |
When citing a book you accessed online or in the form of an e-book, simply add relevant information about its format or location to the end of your citation.
Note that books in these formats might lack reliable page numbers. If there are no page numbers, or page numbers that would look different for another user, use another locator in your notes instead, such as a chapter number.
For an online book, add the URL or DOI where it can be accessed.
Author last name, first name. . Place of publication: Publisher, Year. URL or DOI. Murdoch, Iris. . London: Vintage, 2008. https://books.google.nl/books?id=IJ5fL72Vvs8C. | |
Author first name last name, : Subtitle (Place of publication: Publisher, Year), Page number(s) or Alternate locator, URL or DOI. 1. Iris Murdoch, (London: Vintage, 2008), 126, https://books.google.nl/books?id=IJ5fL72Vvs8C. | |
Author last name, , Page number(s) or Alternate locator. 2. Murdoch, , 129. |
For an e-book, add the format or device name (e.g., “Kindle,” “iBooks”). You don’t need to add a URL or DOI in this case.
Author last name, first name. . Place of publication: Publisher, Year. Format. Murdoch, Iris. . London: Vintage, 2008. Kindle. | |
Author first name last name, : Subtitle (Place of publication: Publisher, Year), Page number(s) or Alternate locator, Format. 1. Iris Murdoch, (London: Vintage, 2008), chap. 5, Kindle. | |
Author last name, , Page number(s) or Alternate locator. 2. Murdoch, , chap. 3. |
In author-date style , books are cited with brief in-text citations corresponding to entries in a reference list. A reference list looks the same as a bibliography, except that the year is placed directly after the author’s name.

The same rules apply in Chicago author-date style .
To automatically generate accurate Chicago references, you can use Scribbr’s free Chicago reference generator .
Page numbers should be included in your Chicago in-text citations when:
When you’re referring to the overall argument or general content of a source, it’s unnecessary to include page numbers.
In Chicago notes and bibliography style , the usual standard is to use a full note for the first citation of each source, and short notes for any subsequent citations of the same source.
However, your institution’s guidelines may differ from the standard rule. In some fields, you’re required to use a full note every time, whereas in some other fields you can use short notes every time, as long as all sources are listed in your bibliography . If you’re not sure, check with your instructor.
Both present the exact same information; the only difference is the placement of the year in source citations:
There are also other types of bibliography that work as stand-alone texts, such as a Chicago annotated bibliography .
