Channel: UNCG University Libraries
Date: 2022-06-28

In this video we'll take you through four steps to citing sources in Chicago Author-Date style, using the citation manager Zotero to collect information about the source and generate a citation, and the Chicago Manual of Style to correct information both in Zotero and in your final citation. 

This video was created for students in the Environment & Sustainability Program, but it will be relevant for most if not all students using Chicago Author-Date and Zotero to cite their sources. Contact your librarian for class visits and Canvas integration at go.uncg.edu/libliaisons.
