Citing Works: An important element of a formal research paper is the citation of sources. In collegiate level courses, you will be asked to cite your sources with notes (footnotes or endnotes) and a bibliography. The preferred citation method for music and the humanities is Chicago. The Music Library owns several style guides that demonstrate the correct citation form according to Chicago. They are: The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th ed. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2003. Call no. Music Reference Z 53 .U69 2003 Hacker, Diana. The Bedford Handbook, 7th ed. Boston: Bedford/St. Martin's, 2006. Call no.
