Authors' names :
Footnotes: All authors' names should be First Name, Initial, Surname e.g. Eliza T. Dresang.
Bibliography: First author should be inverted as Surname, First Name, Initial e.g. Burnett, Kathleen. Additional authors should be First Name, Initial,, Surname e.g. Burnett, Kathleen and Eliza T. Dresang.
Editors' names : If you are referencing the whole book, the format for the editors' names should be the same as for an author in both the footnote and the bibliography. If, however, you are referencing a chapter of an edited book the editor's name should be First Name, Initial, Surname. eg. edited by Paul M. Angle and Mary Stewart van Leeuwen
Italics : Only the book title should be in italics. If you are referencing a chapter in a book, the title of the chapter should not be in italics but should be surrounded by quote marks "....".
Capitalization : All major words in titles and subtitles should be capitalized.
Splitting a URL : If your URL needs to be split do not insert a hyphen. Break the URL before a punctuation mark. Do not add a full stop at the end of URL as this may appear to be part of the URL and cause retrieval problems. URL links should not be live/linked, though Word makes them so as a default (to avoid this right click on the live link and select "Remove Hyperlink".)
Long Footnotes & Shortened Footnotes
The referencing examples provided include a Long Footnote, a Shortened Footnote and a Bibliography entry.
The first time you cite a source (book, website, journal article etc.), you should use a Long Footnote.
Any subsequent times you cite that source, you can use a Short Footnote.

Referencing Magazine Articles
This section gives examples for how to reference magazine articles (non-scholarly periodical articles). While journals are normally cited by volume, issue and date, magazines are normally cited by date alone. If in doubt whether a particular periodical should be treated as a journal or as a magazine, use journal form if the volume and issue number are easily located, magazine form if not.
Magazine Article from the Internet
Note: Magazine articles from the Internet commonly don't have page numbers. Page numbers should be used when available, but are not essential. For how to insert page numbers, see 'Magazine Article in Print' below.

Bibliography
Please be aware of the following important note when using Chicago Referencing (17th ed.)
Note 1: Don't use Ibid in Chicago 17th
In Chicago 16th edition and earlier, it was ok to use Ibid (from the Latin ibidem meaning "in the same place") when you are citing a source that is the same as the immediate previous footnote. In Chicago 17th, this is discouraged. You should use a short footnote (The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th ed., section 14.34, 759).
Note 2: Don't use the 3-em dash for multiple works by one author
In Chicago 16th edition and earlier, it was ok to use a 3-em dash (------) in your Bibliography list if you had multiple works by one author. In Chicago 17th, you should not do this. Instead, you should list the author's name/s for all bibliography citation entries.
