3.3 Notes and Bibliographies The Chicago Manual describes two different types of reference styles: Documentary-Note Style which is normally used in the humanities, and the Author-Date System, normally used in the sciences. The NDLP uses the Documentary-Note Style. This section provides a guide to citation styles for text notes and bibliographic entries most commonly used in American Memory documents. Text notes are footnotes or endnotes referencing specific sources for framework documents. Bibliographic entries appear in collection bibliographies as suggestions for further reading or separately as a list of works consulted in writing framework documents. Bibliographic entries are intended to identify works in full bibliographical detail: name(s) of author(s), full title, and place, publisher, and date of publication. For an explanation of all styles of notes and bibliographic entries, see Chicago 15.1-425. This section also includes suggested styles for citing Internet documents (absent from the 1993 Chicago Manual). For guidelines on constructing bibliographies, see Selected Bibliography. Further information about citation styles appears in Illustrations: Captions and Legends. Documentary-Note Style BOOKS Single author Note style: 1. Eric J.
