Shortened version of title (use matching stylization rule from full citation, be it italicized or in quotation marks).Author's lastname (include first initial if multiple authors with same last name).

Note: While previous versions of the Chicago Style Guide used " Ibid" to refer to the same source consecutively multiple times, the 17th edition now requests the use of only shortened citations. Short form information should include the author’s last name, a shortened version of the title (if longer than four words), and any other directing information, such as page numbers. However, to reduce the overall bulk of publications which use footnotes or endnotes, subsequent usage of that source only requires you to use a shortened version of that citation. The first time a source is cited in your paper, the corresponding note should include all relevant source information.
