Turabian Formatting

The last two blogs have dealt with the two more common styles: MLA and APA. Today, we're looking at the least common, but one that is used by Liberty students who are majoring in religious studies or similar.

I have to be honest ... I am not well-versed in Turabian. In fact, whenever I have a student who writes according to Turabian requirements, I have to research and view those standards.

So, instead of trying to communicate something with which I'm not familiar, I'm just going to point you to a couple of sources that I think might be helpful.

The first comes from The University of Texas at San Antonio. This first link includes basic formatting information (margins, headers, etc.). This link shows you a sample paper. This final link is a sample of a paper for a Liberty grad student.

My recommendation is for you to review these sources carefully before (and while) writing your paper.

Keep pen to paper!
