Note on "Citing - How to Cite...": this video demonstrates Turabian citation using endnotes. You may choose to cite your sources using endnotes, or footnotes. Endnotes in a research paper all appear together, on a separate page at the end of your paper. Footnotes appear at the bottom of the page. If you are not sure whether you should use endnotes, or footnotes, ask your professor which they suggest.
Whether you use endnotes or footnotes, you will still create a separate bibliography for all of your sources.
Guide Books in the Library
Look for citation guide books on the "Citation Help" shelves, next to the central stairs on the library's first floor; or ask at the Checkout Desk to borrow one of the copies that is "on reserve."

What is citation?
A citation provides the reader with information about your sources, to help the reader find them. Citations usually include such elements as:
- title (in Turabian, put titles in italics)
- author
- who published it
- where and when was it published
This is a citation for a book:
