Reference Book Article

According to The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th ed., page 715, well know reference books “are normally cited in notes rather than in bibliographies.  The facts of publication are often omitted, but the edition (if not the first) must be specified.  References to an alphabetically arranged work cite the item (not the volume or page number) preceded by s.v. (sub verbo, “under the word”…)  Check with your instructor for preference in citing reference book articles.

 

Example:  Encyclopedia of World Biography, 2nd ed., s.v. “Edward Kennedy Ellington.”
