The Chicago Manual of Style by University of Chicago Staff (Editor)
Call Number: REF 808.02 C43M16
ISBN: 0226104206
Publication Date: 2010-08-01
The Sixteenth Edition is available in book form and as a subscription website. The same content from The Chicago Manual of Style is in both versions. While digital technologies have revolutionized the publishing world in the twenty-first century, one thing still remains true: The Chicago Manual of Style is the authoritative, trusted source that writers, editors, and publishers turn to for guidance on style and process. For the sixteenth edition, every aspect of coverage has been reconsidered to reflect how publishing professionals work today. Though processes may change, the Manual continues to offer the clear, well-considered style and usage advice it has for more than a century. The sixteenth edition offers expanded information on producing electronic publications, including web-based content and e-books. An updated appendix on production and digital technology demystifies the process of electronic workflow and offers a primer on the use of XML markup, and a revised glossary includes a host of terms associated with electronic as well as print publishing. The Chicago system of documentation has been streamlined and adapted for a variety of online and digital sources. Figures and tables are updated throughout the book—including a return to the Manual’s popular hyphenation table and new, comprehensive listings of Unicode numbers for special characters. With the wisdom of a hundred years of editorial practice and a wealth of industry expertise from both Chicago’s staff and an advisory board of publishing professionals, The Chicago Manual of Style, 16th edition, is an invaluable resource in this rapidly changing world. If you work with words—no matter what the delivery medium—this is the one reference you simply must have.

Paraphrasing Guidelines

Source: The Office of Research Integrity &

"Avoiding plagiarism, self-plagiarism, and other questionable writing practices: A guide to ethical writing" by Miguel Roig.

Guideline 1	An ethical writer ALWAYS acknowledges the contributions of others to his/her work.
Guideline 2	Any verbatim text taken from another source must be enclosed in quotation marks and be accompanied by a citation to indicate its origin.
Guideline 3	When we summarize others’ work, we use our own words to condense and convey others’ contributions in a shorter version of the original.
Guideline 4	When paraphrasing others’ work, not only must we use our own words, but we must also use our own syntactical structure.
Guideline 5	Whether we are paraphrasing or summarizing we must always identify the source of our information.
Guideline 6	When paraphrasing and/or summarizing others’ work we must reproduce the exact meaning of the other author’s ideas or facts using our words and sentence structure.
Guideline 7	In order to be able to make the types of substantial modifications to the original text that result in a proper paraphrase, one must have a thorough command of the language and a good understanding of the ideas and terminology being used.
Guideline 8	When in doubt as to whether a concept or fact is common knowledge, provide a citation.
