Although the IEEE style format is not as popular and famous as MLA, APA, or Chicago, it still takes an important niche in academic research writing, various technical subjects, and data science, in particular. Named after the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standard, it is a very precise format. If you are already familiar with Chicago style for your university assignments, mastering IEEE will not be too challenging.Â
Since the majority of IEEE sources relate to print sources and online publications, knowing IEEE book citation rules is crucial for completing one’s research paper right. Just remember the format’s definite characteristic, which is using the numbering format for citations and inclusion of reference numbers right in your research paper’s text in the square brackets instead of superscripts numbering as it is done in Chicago.Â
Speaking of the Bibliography page, all the source information goes there just like a classic Reference page after the respective number that has been used for the quote. Turning to our IEEE Book citation guide, you can learn by example and master this important writing style in no time!
The best part about the IEEE citation for any source, including the books, is that you do not have to suffer dealing with the in-text citations.

This number that you put in a text relates to an entry in your Bibliography page. It makes it easy to read and helps your audience to understand what kind of source you are talking about.
The only important thing is keeping the numbering precise and making sure that there are no mistakes. In practice, it goes this way when you cite in your research paper:Â
Now the Bibliography example will look this way:Â
As you can see, the [1] in square brackets is a reference to the first entry that you must have in your References.Â
The full citation must contain all the available information that will let your reader find the source and understand where you are coming from. The basic IEEE citation book template follows this format:Â
If you have a book edition information present, it is the “xth ed.” part that you must fill in with “2nd ed.” or any other number.
Now we have to follow this template:
If your source has no author, IEEE books quote goes this way:
