Notes and Bibliography

(see section 13.72: The 3-em dash—reasons to avoid This link opens in a new window)

Chicago no longer recommends using the 3-em dash to stand in for the same author(s) in consecutive bibliography entries, preferring instead a repetition of authors’ names.

In a bibliography, titles by the same author are normally listed alphabetically.

For Example

Bibliography

Judt, Tony. A Grand Illusion? An Essay on Europe. Hill and Wang, 1996.

Judt, Tony. Reappraisals: Reflections on the Forgotten Twentieth Century. Penguin Press, 2008.
