Chicago Citation Style, 18th Edition

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

Chapter from an Edited Work
(Sections 13.25 and 14.9)

When citing a chapter or similar part of an edited book, precede the title of the book with in. When citing multiple chapters from the same edited work, see the Manual, 14.10. Also, note that it is no longer necessary to record a page range for the chapter in the bibliography entry.

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).
