Chicago Citation Style, 18th Edition

A University of Lethbridge Library guide to Chicago Manual of Style citations.

Author and Translator
(Section 14.6)

Please note that Chicago now omits the place of publication for books published after 1900 (see the Manual, 14.30). For books published before 1900, they recommend using the place of publication instead of the publisher itself, as it is of greater interest (see the Manual, 14.31).

For more information on translated titles, see the Manual, 13.101.
