New York: Pantheon Books, 1966. Book with author and editor In notes, CMOS prefers the abbreviation of “editor(s)” as “ed.” or “eds.,” and translator(s) as “trans.” In bibliographic entries, these abbreviations are not used. Instead, titles are spelled out in full. This information appears in The Chicago Manual of Style, section 14.103. N: 4. Edward B. Tylor, Researches into the Early Development of Mankind and the Development of Civilization, ed. Paul Bohannan (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1964), 194. B: Tylor, Edward B. Researches into the Early Development of Mankind and the Development of Civilization. Edited by Paul Bohannan. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1964. Chapter from a single-authored book CMOS supplies two correct forms for bibliographic entries. Both are noted here. N: 5.

See esp. chap. 5, “How to Tame a Wild Tongue.” Contributions from an edited collection with various authored chapters When citing work by a single author that appears in a book with multiple authors, the contributing author’s name is cited first, followed by the title of their contribution, the word 'in' and the title of the book, along with the name(s) of the editors, and other standard information. N: 6. Muriel Harris, “Talk to Me: Engaging Reluctant Writers,” in A Tutor's Guide: Helping Writers One to One, ed. Ben Rafoth (New Hampshire: Heinemann, 2000), 24-34.

Edited by John Brockman. New York: Harper Perennial, 2007. Anonymous works--Unknown authorship Sources that have no known author or editor should be cited by title. Follow the basic format for "Footnote or Endnote" and "Corresponding Bibliographical Entry" that are exemplified above, omitting author and/or editor names and beginning respective entries with the title of the source. Citing indirect sources Because authors are generally expected to be intimately familiar with the sources they are citing, Chicago discourages the use of a source that was cited within another (secondary) source. In the case that an original source is utterly unavailable, however, Chicago requires the use of "quoted in" for the note: N: 8. Ian Hacking, The Social Construction of What? (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1999), 103, quoted in Manuel DeLanda, A New Philosophy of Society (New York: Continuum, 2006), 2. Self-published or Privately Published Books Books published by the author should be cited according to information available on the title page or copyright page. In place of publisher, include language such as “self-published” (abbreviated as “self-pub” in notes, but not a bibliography) or “printed by the author” is usually appropriate. For self-published e-books, add the name of the application or device required to read the book or the name of the file format, or both. N: 9. Kathleen Long, Chasing Rainbows: A Novel (self-pub., CreateSpace, 2011). B: Long, Kathleen. Chasing Rainbows: A Novel. Self-published, CreateSpace, 2011.

Purdue University Purdue Online Writing Lab COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS Purdue University College of Liberal Arts MLA Works Cited Page: Books When you are gathering book sources, be sure to make note of the following bibliographic items: the author name(s), other contributors such as translators or editors, the book’s title, editions of the book, the publication date, the publisher, and the pagination. Cite a book automatically in MLA Search a book by title, author, or ISBN Using citation machines responsibly Powered by Powered by CitationMachine.net The 8th edition of the MLA handbook highlights principles over prescriptive practices. Essentially, a writer will need to take note of primary elements in every source, such as author, title, etc. and then assort them in a general format. Thus, by using this methodology, a writer will be able to source a specific item that may not be included in this list. Remember these changes from previous editions: Commas are used instead of periods between Publisher, Publication Date, and Pagination. Medium is no longer necessary. Containers are now a part of the MLA process. Periods should be used between Containers. DOIs should be used instead of URLS when available. Use the term “Accessed” instead of listing the date or the abbreviation, “n.d.” Below is the general format for any citation: Author. Title. Title of container (self contained if book), Other contributors (translators or editors), Version (edition), Number (vol. and/or no.), Publisher, Publication Date, Location (pages, paragraphs URL or DOI). 2nd container’s title, Other contributors, Version, Number, Publisher, Publication date, Location, Date of Access (if applicable). Basic Book Format The author’s name or a book with a single author's name appears in last name, first name format. The basic form for a book citation is: Last Name, First Name. Title of Book. City of Publication, Publisher, Publication Date. *Note: the City of Publication should only be used if the book was published before 1900, if the publisher has offices in more than one country, or if the publisher is unknown in North America. Book with One Author Gleick, James. Chaos: Making a New Science. Penguin, 1987. Henley, Patricia. The Hummingbird House. MacMurray, 1999. Book with More Than One Author When a book has multiple authors, order the authors in the same way they are presented in the book. The first given name uploads/Litterature/ eapp.pdf
