How do I cite a webpage from a website in Chicago Style?
Answer
Chicago Style recommends:
Footnote:
1. First Name Last name (if available), “Title of Webpage,” Name of Website, Publication/Accessed Date, URL
1. Ruth Graham, “Long Overdue: Why Public Libraries are Finally Eliminating the Late-Return Fine,” Slate, February 6, 2017, https://slate.com/culture/2017/ 02/librarians-are-realizing-that-overdue-fines-undercut-libraries-missions.html.
Bibliography
Last name, First Name (if available). “Title of Webpage.” Name of Website. Publication/Accessed Date, URL.
Graham, Ruth. “Long Overdue: Why Public Libraries are Finally Eliminating the Late-Return Fine.” Slate, February 6, 2017. https://slate.com/culture/2017/ 02/librarians-are-realizing-that-overdue-fines-undercut- libraries-missions.html.
If no specific person is named as the author, lead with the title of the webpage:
"Title of Webpage." Name of Website. Publication/Access Date. URL.
"Life Soccer Scores, Fixtures, & Results." Goal.com. Accessed June 12, 2024. https://www.goal.com/en- us/live-scores.
Many webpages will not have specific dates, refer to the Library’s FAQs on “How Do I Cite Sources that Don’t Have a Date?” or “How Do I Cite a Webpage that Only Provides a Copyright Date Range?”
If you need further help, contact a librarian.
