Changes in Notes-Bibliography Style
The treatment of a title in website citations now depends on the website.
If the website has a print counterpart, such as the website for a newspaper, the title should be in italics. If it does not, it should not be in italics.
Examples:
- The New York Times
- Gizmodo
Use of “ibid.” is no longer encouraged.
Ibid is the abbreviated version of the Latin word ibidem, meaning “in the same place.” Previously, if you used the same source two times or more in a note, you could use ibid instead of re-listing the same information.
Now, according to the new 9th edition, you should include a shortened footnote citation. To avoid repetition, the title of a work that has just been cited may be left out.
- Middlekauff, Glorious Revolution, 401–2.
- Middlekauff, 433.
- Jacobs, Women in Africa, 37–38.
- Jacobs, 201–2.
