Chicago Manual of Style: Citing Print Sources
The Chicago Manual of Style offers two basic systems. One system is Notes and Bibliography. This is generally used by writers in literature, history, and the arts. The other is the Author-Date System. This is generally used by writers in the physical sciences, natural sciences, and social sciences.
Works consulted are listed in a bibliography. Documentation of specific portions of a work (bibliographic citations) is listed in notes (footnotes or endnotes). Footnotes are listed at the bottom of pages throughout the paper. Endnotes are listed at the end of the text of the paper.
Please note:
In the bibliography no page numbers are given for books.
For journals, give the beginning and ending page numbers of the article.
In notes, pages numbers should be given for specific passages being referenced. This applies to both books and journal articles.

Holt, 1999.
