There are slightly different rules for citing edited books in each of the 4 popular citation styles.It is important to know how to cite Works Cited or reference lists, non-parenthetical in-text citations, and footnotes.If you have reviewed the guidelines compiled by the Modern Language Association, the American Psychological Association and the editors of the Chicago Manual of Style, you will be ready to cite any edited books you need to.
Step 1: If you are citing the whole book, start with the editor's name.
The editor's last name should be before their first.Next, you will include the book title, followed by the publisher.The date of publication is the end.The editor's name, book title, and publisher should be separated by periods.It's a good idea to add a few words before the publication date.For example: Susan, M., editor.The Tuskegee syphilis study is being reexamined.The University of North Carolina Press was published in 2000.The publisher's location is not required for books published after 1900.
Step 2: There should be at least one editor with the word "and".
The second editor's name should not be inverted.List the first editor and then type "et al." for more than 2 editors.The Presidency and Public Opinion in the American Century is a book about selling war in a media age.The University Press of Florida.Baughman, James L., et al. are editors.Essays on Print and the Culture of Dissent were written in 1865.The University of Wisconsin Press.
Step 3: If you are citing a portion of the book, start with the author's name.
The author's last name, first name and middle name should be typed out.The title should be included in quotation marks.The editor's first and last name are followed by the italicized title of the book.The publisher and publication date should be included with the page numbers.For example, Carol Kaesuk.The University of North Carolina Press published a book called "Tuskegee's Truths: Rethinking the Tuskegee syphilis study" in 2000.475-476.If the editor's name comes at the beginning of the citation, you'll separate it from the publisher.
Step 4: If you are referencing a portion of their work, you should mention the editor twice.
If you were citing an introduction or a chapter written by the editor, you would choose this format.The editor is the author at the beginning of the citation and the editor in the middle.You don't need to include their last name if you reference the editor twice.The introduction was written by Susan M. Reverby.There is more than a metaphor in the scholarship of the study.7-13.
Step 5: If you are referencing multiple chapters, you should write out the full citation.
You can cross reference the full citation within the Works Cited list.Place the editor's name at the beginning of the citation to cite the entire edited collection.You can exclude the publisher and publication date if you cite a single chapter or portion of the book.Only type out the editor's last name and drop the "edited by" in the citations.The families became silent victims of the study.475-476.
Step 6: The editor's name should be put in the in-text citation.
If you are citing a portion of the book written by the editor or the whole edited book, you need to reference them in your in-text citation.Put the editor's last name and the pages you're referencing in parentheses.The citation should be at the end of the sentence where you quote, paraphrase, or refer to the editor's work.For example, "Reverby 10."
Step 7: The author's name is used in an in-text citation.
This in-text citation would follow a quotation, paraphrase, or reference to a particular chapter by an author that is not the editor of the book.You should include the author's last name and page number in parentheses.At the end of the sentence where you made the reference, place the in-text citation.For example:
Step 8: The whole book should be cited with the editor's last name and initials.
The initials of the editor's first and middle names should be typed first.Next, add something.The year of publication is listed in parentheses.The book title should be capitalized with the first words of the title and subtitle.The location, colon and publication date are important.S. M. is an example.There is an Ed.The year 2000.The Tuskegee study is being reexamined.The University of North Carolina Press is in Chapel Hill.Proper nouns should be capitalized in titles and subtitles.
Step 9: There are two sets of editors with the letters "&."
The last names and initials of the editors will be used.The names of the editors should not be the same.For example: Frank, A. K.The book is called (Eds.).(2010).The presidency and public opinion in the American century were sold in a media age.The University Press of Florida is in Gainesville.When there are 6 or more editors, you can represent all but the first editor's name by "et al" in your in-text citations.
Step 10: Represent more than one editor.
The last names and initials of the first 6 editors are listed on the title page.The last name and initials of the last editor are listed on the title page.
Step 11: The author's last name should be used for portions.
The author's last name should be followed by their first and middle initials.The publication date should be placed inside parentheses.The title of the chapter should not have quotation marks.Write out the name of the editor and the book title.Refer to the page numbers of the chapter in parentheses and end with the publication location.C. K. (2000) is an example.The families were silent victims of the experiments.In S. M. Reverby.The Tuskegee syphilis study is being reexamined.Thepp.465-465).The University of North Carolina Press is in Chapel Hill.
Step 12: The author should reference the editor twice.
They play two roles if you cite an introduction, preface, or chapter written by the editor.You can type out their last name and initials in the middle of the citation.For example: S. M. Reverby.There is an introduction.An overview of the study's scholarship is more than a metaphor.In S.M.It's called Reverby.The Tuskegee syphilis study is being reexamined.Thepp.7-13).The University of North Carolina Press is in Chapel Hill.
Step 13: For in-text citations, use only last names.
The editor's last name should be included if you're referencing the entire edited book or a portion of the book they wrote.If a chapter is written by a different author, use their last name.The publication date is in parentheses when you type out their name.The in-text citation should be at the end of the line.For the editor.For an author.There are two editors with an "&" like so.The first in-text citation should be used with the commas and the "&" symbol.The type is for all subsequent in-text citations.Only the first listed editor's name followed by "et al" will be used in all in-text citations.
Step 14: Page numbers for in-text citations are added.
The page numbers will let your reader know where to find the material.After the page number at the end of the citation, add "p." for 1 page or "pp" for multiple pages.Reverby, 2000, pp.10-18).
Step 15: There is a way to make a note for an entire book.
Footnotes are used instead of in-text citations in Chicago.There are full citations at the bottom of the page.The editor's name, abbreviation "eds.," and the italicized title of the book will be included in your footnote.In parentheses, type out the publication location, publisher, and date of publication.They are Thomas C. Holt and Laurie B.The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture: Volume 24: Race was written by Green.
Step 16: For a chapter in a book, make a footnote.
In this case, you will start with the author of the chapter and the title.The editor's names and the book title are followed by the letter "in".The publication information should be included in parentheses and the page numbers of the selection.The author and title should be separated with commas rather than periods."Little Women's libbers" and "Free to be Kids": Children and the Struggle for Gender Equality in the United States" was written by the authors.
Step 17: The first entry should prompt you to shorten your footnotes.
Chicago style allows you to shorten your footnotes after you write a full paragraph.The author or editor's last name is used in these notes.The title should make it clear to the reader which source you are referring to.You should include the page number at the end of the footnote.Holt and Green, Encyclopedia of Southern Culture are examples.The chapter title should be used for single chapters.
Step 18: Make slight changes to the footnotes.
The information you need is already typed out.The first and last names of the first listed editor should be changed.If you have more than one editor or author, you can type that person's name into a notepad.The footnotes have different elements with periods.The publication information should be removed from the parentheses.For an edited collection, Holt, Thomas C., and Laurie B.The Green, ed.The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture: Volume 24 is Race.The University of North Carolina Press is located in Chapel Hill.There is a single chapter in the collection.In When We Were Free to Be: Looking Back at a Children's Classic and the Difference It Made, edited by Lori and Laura, there is a discussion about the struggle for gender equality in the United States.The University of North Carolina Press is located in Chapel Hill.
Step 19: Editors' names should be replaced with "et al" in the footnotes.
The first editor is listed on the title page.You will still write out the names of the editors in the bibliography after that.Cheryl I. Harris wrote "Whiteness as Property" in Critical Race Theory: The Key Writings That Formed the Movement.The book was written by Kimberlé Crenshaw, et al.The New Press was in New York.Harris, Cheryl I.Critical Race Theory: The Key Writings That Formed the Movement was edited by Neil Gotanda and Gary Peller.The New Press was published in New York.
Step 20: The names of more than 10 editors should be replaced with the wordet al.
You can type in the names of the first 7 editors on the title page.Remove any other authors listed with the word "et al" after that.
Step 21: References to the whole book can be made using the editor's last name and initials.
First and second letters of the editor's first and middle names are used to type their name.After their name, add the abbreviation ed.The title of the book should be italicized.Write out the publisher's location and date of publication.For example: SM, ed.The Tuskegee syphilis study is being reexamined.The University of North Carolina Press was published in 2000.
Step 22: The author's initials and last name should be written.
The first word of the chapter's title should be capitalized.Next, type in the name of the book's editor.If you normally would, write out the title and publication info.You need to type a colon and page numbers.Building partnerships in community-based research.Blumenthal, DS, DiClemente, RJ, Braithwaite, R, Smith, SA are authors.There are issues, methods, and translation to practice in community-based Participatory Health Research.2nd edition.New York, NY: Springer Publishing Company.There is a space between the colon and the page numbers.
Step 23: When there are 7 or more, replace editors' names with "et al"
Only the first 3 are listed on the title page if there are 7 or more editors.For example: Fauci, AS, Braunwald, E, Kasper,DL, et al., ed.The principles of internal medicine were written by Harrison.17th ed.New York, NY: McGraw Hill.
Step 24: You can connect to your reference list by using numerical in-text citations.
To cite sources in your paper, you must include an Arabic numeral superscript, which is a small number that goes above the line of text.The full citations you typed out in your reference list are connected to these numbers.
