If you are a HISTORY student, use Turabian (Notes-Bibliography) Style
Turabian (Author-Date) Style is a way to give credit to other people's ideas and words in a paper. This site provides an outline of the style. For specific questions, ask your instructor or use A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations. You can use the book at the Surry Community College Library and the Academic Support Center.
