Chicago Style Citation

Chicago Style Citation is a method used to give proper credit to sources in academic and professional writing. It provides guidelines for formatting footnotes, endnotes, and bibliographies, ensuring consistency and clarity. The style has two main systems: the Notes and Bibliography system (often used in humanities) and the Author-Date system (common in sciences). By following Chicago Style, writers clearly indicate where information comes from, allowing readers to locate the original sources easily. It promotes transparency, intellectual honesty, and helps maintain a professional standard across scholarly work.
