Style and Citation Guide & Sample Paper Formatting Steinbach Bible College requires all students to follow the Turabian (Chicago) eighth edition when formatting papers. Use these guidelines when formatting your assignments. - Do not print double-sided - Papers should be written in Times New Roman font, size 12pt (footnotes in 10pt). - Double-space the entire paper. - All margins should be set to 1 in. - Put page numbers in a header at the upper-right hand corner of your essay. The title page is NOT numbered. - The first page of your paper is the Title Page Put the title of your paper about 1/3 way down, bold and centered. Near the bottom of the page put your name, box number, class name, instructor’s name, and the date (all centered on individual lines). The title page is not numbered, and does not count in page totals. - The Bibliography Page should be single spaced, with an extra line between each entry. (more info below) - If using headings, make them left justified with no indentation. - If a quote is more than 5 lines, make it a block quote Indent the entire quote Use single space for the quote (leave a line space before and after) Do not use quotation marks Bibliography Page At the end of the paper, there is a list of all the works cited and consulted called the bibliography. These are the guidelines to follow when arranging your bibliography. The Bibliography should be on a separate page from the rest of your paper. To do this, simply use a page break. Title the page Bibliography, underlined and centered; leave an extra space before starting your entries. List all entries with a hanging indent List the lead author by surname first; list all other author names as they appear in the source Arrange entries in one alphabetical sequence by the first name or word given in the entry. When beginning with the title ignore initial articles (e.g. A, An, The) for alphabetization. If there are two or more entries by the same author, give the author’s name in the first entry only. In subsequent entries use three hyphens in place of the name, followed by a period and the title. Arrange these works alphabetically by title. Citation There are two main styles of citation in Turabian: notes-bibliography style and parenthetical citations-reference list style. SBC students should always use notes-bibliography style (unless explicitly instructed otherwise). All examples in the style guide are of the Notes-bibliography style. When making a citation, place a superscript number at the end of the sentence. He argues that “plenary verbal inspiration view seems to deal best with all biblical evidence.” 1 These numbers correspond with footnotes at the bottom of each pages. 1. Bill T. Arnold and Bryan Beyer. Encountering the Old Testament: A Christian Survey. 2nd ed. (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Academic, 2008), 25. When citing the same source again, use a shortened version for the footnotes. 3. Arnold and Beyer, Encountering the Old Testament, 25. Or 3. Arnold and Beyer, 25. If the same source is cited back-to-back, used ibid in the repeating footnote: 3. Ibid, 25. All sources are also listed at the end of the paper in a bibliography. In this list, include every source that was cited, as well as any sources that you consulted and did not cite. Arnold, Bill T., and Bryan Beyer.
