  1. Everything You Need to Know about Chicago Style Citations Source URL - https://apa-referencing-style.blogspot.com/2020/11/everything-you-need-to- know-about.html Chicago style is often used by history and social sciences researchers to structure their references. It comes in two varieties – notes and bibliography and author-date. Scholars working in the humanities widely use the notes and bibliography system. Each source is cited in numbered footnotes and listed in a separate bibliography. In contrast, the researchers in the science and social sciences domain commonly use the author-date system. Here, brief citations are written parentheses with the author's last name and publication year and complete references in the Chicago style bibliography section.
