The Turabian style is a citing and referencing system based on the Chicago style and named after Kate Turabian, from the University of Chicago, who authored a manual to guide students in citing and referencing when writing research papers. The print manual is available from all Monash libraries.
There are two forms of the Turabian style:
1. Notes - Bibliography Style: This style has a superscript number in the text and a footnote at the bottom of the page, as well as a bibliography at the end of the document.
2. Author - Date: In author-date style, you signal that you have used a source by placing a parenthetical author date citation, e.g. (Smith 2011) within the body of your document. There is also a bibliography at the end of the document.
