The Chicago Manual of Style, 18th ed. does not provide instructions on how to cite course packs. The following is just one possible format to follow. You need to use your own judgment, and we suggest that you check with your instructor first.

Treat the items in your course pack like articles or chapters in an edited book that are reprinted from another source.

  • Use the name of the instructor as the editor. If the instructor’s name is not given, use the department as the editor.
  • Use the bookstore as the publisher
  • Use the date the course pack was issued as the date of publication. If there is no date of issue, use the current semester and year for the date of publication.
