Use the following guidelines to cite your sources. Your paper must include a bibliography page and you have to use footnotes. DO NOT use endnotes or parenthetical references.

Use the first format for your bibliography (B) and the second for the footnotes (FN). Items in your bibliography should be divided between primary and secondary sources and listed by author in alphabetical order. Your bibliography should be single spaced, with one blank line between entries. For additional information on how to cite sources, see Kate Turabian, A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses and Disertations (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1996), check the Chicago Manual of Style Online, or click here.

Sources you SHOULD NOT use for your Paper
Class Notes
General Encyclopedias

Popular History Books
Secondary Sources from the Internet including, but not limited to Wikipedia and other online encyclopedias. [There is a lot of useful material online, but there is also plenty of information of questionable value to the historian. As a general rule, DO NOT cite secondary sources from the internet on your paper. Please note that academic articles, book reviews, and the like which are kept online in databases like JStor or H-Net can be used in your papers. One way to determine if the information is valuable is to read through some of the sites put together by Prof. Tygiel in his webpage. If you are still in doubt about a site, check with me.]
