Bluebook 101

This guide will serve as a general introduction to the Bluebook. It is tailored to students seeking to cite-on or write-on to one of CU's law reviews or journals.

Rule 16: Periodical Materials

Two common citation forms:

Article in a law review 

Note: the Bluebook describes this as a "consecutively paginated journal."  A periodical is "consecutively paginated" if page numbers continue between issues within each volume.

 

Article in a magazine

Note: the Bluebook describes this as a "nonconsecutively paginated journal."  A magazine or journal fits this category if page numbers start over with each new issue.
