The Whitepages cover citations for books, reports, and other nonperiodic materials. See R15, pp. 147-56. There are some examples on The Bluebook's Quick Style Guide. The main elements for these types of citations include:
- Author (large and small caps)
- Title (large and small caps)
- Page, section, or paragraph cited
- Editor or translator
- Edition
- Date
The main elements for these citations slightly differ in the Bluepages (see B15, pp. 22-23) and include:
- The volume number (for multi-volume sets)
- The full name(s) of the author(s) as written in the publication
- The title of the publication (underscored or italicized)
- A pinpoint citation
- A parenthetical indicating the year of publication, the name of the editor (if any), and the edition (if more than one)
