Referencing
The Courtauld’s recommended referencing style is the Chicago Manual of Style Online.
The Library team and the Academic Skills tutor can support you in using this style.
Some students prefer to organise their sources manually, and if so you might want to use our ‘Organise Your Research’ Excel template.
Cite Them Right
Cite Them Right is available via Senate House Library (search the terms Cite Them Right). Cite Them Right explains reference correctly across eight referencing styles, including Chicago Manual of Style. Courtauld students and staff can watch a library screencast that clicks through Senate House authentication.
It’s designed to simplify the process of referencing, including how to paraphrase, quote, and understand the differences between secondary and primary sources.
We also have a print book of Cite Them Right, available in the Library.
Chicago Manual of Style
The complete Chicago Manual of Style Online is a comprehensive guide; Chapter 14 provides extensive advice and citation examples.
Find more academic platforms in the Databases A-Z area of Library Search.
