What's the difference?

The Notes and Bibliography Style of Chicago Manual of Style utilizes numbered footnotes or endnotes when citing sources in-text.

The Author-Date Style briefly cites sources in-text, usually in parentheses, by author's last name and year of publication.

The end bibliographies for both styles are similar, but the Author-Date has the date listed further up in the reference.
