Turabian Citation Style Guide 9th Edition: E. Magazine Article from Online Magazine

About Citing Books

For each type of source in this guide, the general form and specific examples will be provided for the Notes-Bibliography style options of Turabian.

This information and several of the examples were drawn from A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations (9th Edition). Numbers in parentheses refer to specific pages in the manual.

For further information, please ask your instructor or refer to the Turabian manual.

Magazine Article from an Online Magazine

Follow the basic format for magazine articles and include the URL for those magazine articles that are from an online source. Only include access date when publication date is not provided. There are generally no page numbers to cite (17.3).
 

Note: Please be mindful of assignment requirements and check them carefully. Most academic assignments do not allow for the use of magazine articles. If your professor asks for scholarly sources, you want to avoid magazines and look for scholarly journals instead. 

Helpful Tip: In One SEARCH use the limiters on the left side of your results screen to limit down to Scholarly journals only.
