I’m wondering if the built in style guide for chicago (16th Author-Date) is wrong. Endnote does not put quotation marks around a title, but all indications are that there should be. Can anyone comment?
Paper presented at a meeting or conference
Adelman, Rachel. 2009. “ ‘Such Stuff as Dreams Are Made On’: God’s Footstool in the Aramaic Targumim and Midrashic Tradition.” Paper presented at the annual meeting for the Society of Biblical Literature, New Orleans, Louisiana, November 21–24.
the template for “Conference Proceedings” is the below - which also has a “quoted” title, which is also close, but it appears the year needs to be moved up. So you would edit the output style (Edit>Output style – Edit output style “Chicago 16A” >Bibliography templates, and open the Conference proceedings template – then move the “Year of Conference” up to infront of “Title.” and add a fullstop after it.
It is now
Author. “Title.” Paper presented at the Conference Name|, Conference Location|, Date Year of Conference|.
So
Author. Year of Conference. “Title.” Paper presented at the Conference Name|, Conference Location|, Date|.
The | characters are to ensure that random punctuation is not included if the field in a record doesn’t contain any information.
