First, choose either the citation express tool (ex. ISBN search) or the manual entry form to create the citations -
Step 1: Highlight the citation
To highlight, move your cursor to
the beginning of the citation and hold down the left mouse button. Keep holding down the left mouse button while
moving your cursor over the whole citation until the entire bibliography entry is highlighted.
Step 2: Use keyboard shortcut by holding down both CTRL and C for copying the text. Alternately, you may right click the mouse and select "Copy" from the menu.
Step 3: On your paper (Example here is Microsoft Word 2010), place the cursor at the position where the cited phrases/sentences end. Look at the tab on the top menu and click "References" to expand the ribbon. Click the button "Insert Footnote" on the ribbon.
Step 4: The footnote section will appear at the bottom of the page. Use keyboard shortcut CTRL and V to paste the footnote.
Step 5: Important >> MS Word does not indent the footnote correctly according to Turabian style. You may download the template from eTurabian Resources page to fix the issue.
Step 6: (optional) Change the default pageNr to a page number referring to the cited source if you did not specify the page number at the time of creating the citation.
