CITATION  AND  BIBLIOGRAPHY  PRINCIPLES

Chicago-style citations in the author-date version are used in the journal “Studia Ecologiae et Bioethicae”. The reference point for making footnotes and bibliography is Turabian Manual for Writers. Citation Quick Guide.

To help authors in arranging the list of cited publications, the editorial team recommends using the Zotero application. Zotero uses Citation Style Language (CSL) to properly format citations and a list of references in many citation styles (Chicago, MLA, APA, Vancouver, etc.). 

A facility for authors is also a generator of bibliographic items and citations available on the Internet: Free Chicago Style Citation Generator.
