Mints M. M. “ ‘Chikagskoe rukovodstvo po stiliu’ (bibliograficheskie ssylki i bibliograficheskie ukazateli v angloiazychnykh stranakh)” [Chicago Manual of Style (bibliographic references and bibliographic indices presentation in the English-speaking world)]. Bibliografiia i knigovedenie [Bibliography and bibliology], no. 3 (2023): 107–22.

The article deals with the styling of bibliographical data in the English-speaking world, mainly with the rules of the ISBD and of the Chicago Manual of Style. Special attention is paid to the styling of bibliographic references in scholarly papers and of bibliographic indices.
