Fellow librarians,
I had a BUS 126 student in Osborn's class who needed to know how to use op. cit. endnotes with the Chicago citation style. Unfortunately, according to the 15th edition, op. cit. and it's kin, loc. cit. are no longer used (16.50). Instead Chicago style directs users to use the short-title form (16.45).
Given that the class is still employing op. cit. we still need to provide students with an example of how it is used. A Google search proved the most helpful in this case. It directed me to Southampton Solent University's Library page discussing the use of op. cit. and ibid. and provided examples of how each is used. See link: Using ibid. and op. cit.--Southampton Solent University
