The CSE (formerly CBE style) citation manual is often used for research papers in the sciences. It is based on the Scientific style and format : the CSE manual for authors, editors, and publishers, which is available at both the Schaumburg and downtown Auditorium libraries. The call number for the print copy is REF T11.S386 2006. It is found on the Write & Cite shelf in the reference area.
