IMPORTANT: Your instructor’s requirements may overrule Chicago’s formatting recommendations! See also section A.2.3.4 in the Turabian appendix on paper format and submission. For more details, see chapters 16 and 17 in the Turabian Manual. To see what a page of endnotes looks like, consult the sample below. (Note that if you are using author-date style, your paper will not have endnotes.) Single-space each note, and add a blank line between notes (and two blank lines before chapter subheads).Indent the first line of each note half an inch like a paragraph in the main text.If note numbers restart with 1 in each chapter, add chapter subheads.For the note numbers, use normal text with a period and space after, or use superscript (to match the corresponding note numbers in the main text) with a space but no period after.Center the title Notes at the top of the first page and add two blank lines after.Put endnotes after the main text and any appendixes but before the bibliography.Turabian’s A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations.
Here’s how to format endnotes for a Chicago-style paper following the guidelines in Kate L. Endnotes are also better at accommodating tables, quoted poetry, or anything else that may require extra space. But if your notes are so long or numerous that they take up too much space on the page, endnotes are usually the better choice. Unless your department specifies, use footnotes, which are easier to read. Endnotes appear at the end of the paper rather than at the foot of the page.
If you cite your sources in your thesis or dissertation (or class paper) using numbered notes, you may have the option of using endnotes rather than footnotes.
