This handout contains very simplified instructions for Turabian style citation.  For more specific information, you can refer to the manual, A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Dissertations by Kate Turabian. Also found here.

From The University of Richmond, Writer's Web also offers a simplified explanation of all things related to writing in the Turabian Style. For documentation, here is a direct link to a guide Turabian's A Manual For Writers.

Finally, a .pdf file offers a guide to the use of primary and secondary sources for use in dissertations and other research papers. Turabian and other writing styles are identified in this PDF.
