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.

When I started college I used the tool built into Microsoft Word. It's easy to use and seemed to fit my needs, however, I started using footnotes in Seminary and found that the built in tool doesn't do the footnote citations. Luckily your site does. I love this site. It has been a wonderful tool in my bag as I write.
ReplyDeleteI was curious if you have thought about either an offline version of the site, or, an app. I'm in the military and find that I am working on papers and sermons in locations without an internet connection. Perhaps an even better option would be an eturabian.com offline add-in for Microsoft Word. This would allow it to be used cross platform as long as the user has Word installed, rather than having to code for Android, iOS, or Windows (as a universal app. :).
After looking through the office store, it appears there is no product currently available that will do what you do. It's just a thought, but, I know that having you closer than the web would be a very welcome thing. Thanks again for the work you do and I look forward to seeing what new things are done in the future.
(I attempted to leave this at the suggestion site and received a repeatable "run-time error". Figured this was the next best way.)
