Notes and Bibliography Citations
Notes and Bibliography (NB) Footnotes and Endnotes
This format uses superscript, footnotes or endnotes in-text citations, and a bibliography for the citation list.
In Word, when you need a footnote with a corresponding superscript, click the “References” tab and then click “Insert Footnote” after all punctuation.
If you want endnotes, you will have to put the superscript in yourself and make an endnote page/s at the end before the bibliography.
Make sure the notes are the same font and size as your main text.
Singular notes should be single-spaced but double-spaced between.
You may use regular numbers or superscripts in the notes.
The numbers seen at the end (or before links) are the page numbers.
■ All example citations in both this section and the bibliography section are from CMOS official website, which is linked above.
