Chicago Style Citations

After spending yesterday working with our outlines and as you get closer to beginning the drafting process, today we will learn how to cite our sources using the Chicago Manual of Style system. The Chicago Manual of Style requires you to cite your sources internally using footnotes and provide a bibliography of all of your sources.
The system is explained with an example in this document: Creating Footnotes in Chicago Style.
