Works Cited and Suggested Readings

Glossary Articles and Research Summaries should contain few citations. Indeed, none are best. A short list of suggested readings (fewer than five) may accompany glossary entries.

All works cited in Research Articles, Position Papers or Glossary Articles, and only works cited, should be included in a Works Cited list at the end of the document.

Please provide full bibliographic information for all items included in Works Cited and Suggested Reading lists. Note that inclusive pages numbers should be provided for all journal articles and book chapters.

Text Citations

Text citations should follow author-date format as set out in the Chicago Manual of Style (CMS) – 15 th edition. Separate years from page numbers with a comma. Separate works from one another with a semicolon. If listing two works by the same author, repeat only the year. List up to three authors of a single work. If a work has four or more authors, list only the first and use et al . (Cleese, Gilliam, and Idle 1976; Cleese et al. 1983, 100-1). The Works Cited list, however, should list all authors.

Example :

Recent literature has examined long-run price drifts following initial public offerings (Ritter 1991; Loughran and Ritter 1995), stock splits (Ikenberry, Rankine, and Stice 1996), seasoned equity offerings (Loughran and Ritter 1995), and equity repurchases (Ikenberry, Laakonishok, and Vermaelan 1995).

Example:

As Josling, Tangermann and Warley (1996, 29) observe, the waiver had a “chilling effect on international trade policy.”

Example:

As Tsing (2000) cautions, we must avoid making distinctions between global “forces” and local “places.”


Text Citations (Archival Materials Only)

Citation of archival materials presents an exception to the author-date rule. Archival materials only will be cited using numbered endnotes formatted as follows:

  1. Saskatchewan Archives, R384, f. 37, John Tootoosis in the Report on the Indian Meeting at Duck Lake, Saskatchewan, 10 January 1946.
  2. Glenbow Archives, M7155, IAA Fonds, no file, James Gladstone to David Crowchild, 29 September 1956.
  3. Glenbow Archives, M7655, James Gladstone Papers, f. 322, M.J. Edwards to Tom Kaquitts, 18 January 1949.
  4. LAC, RG 29, vol. 2916, f. 851-1-A671, pt. 1 (B), W.L. Falconer to Minister of Indian Affairs, 31 July 1947.

Authors should group archival locations under a subheading “Archives Consulted” at the beginning of the Works Cited, listing the archives and either the collection names (i.e., W.L.M. King Papers) or if a collection has no name, the record groups or materials groups consulted (RG 29, MG 3). This directs the reader to the main locations, and the Notes will give the specifics of items cited. The remainder of the Works Cited list will have the subheading “Other Publications.”
