Turabian 9 keeps student Notes & Bibliography and Author-Date explicit

Turabian 9 provides two citation systems for student research: Notes & Bibliography and Author-Date. Lynara keeps the system selector visible and generates the bibliography/reference entry plus the matching full note or parenthetical citation from the same verified metadata.

Turabian 9 was aligned with Chicago 17, so this page is intentionally separate from Lynara’s Chicago 18 generator. Edition-specific details such as publisher location should not be silently inherited from Chicago 18.
