The Maroonbook is a system of legal citation that intends to be simpler and more straightforward than the more widely used Bluebook.[1] It was developed at the University of Chicago, and is the citation system for the University of Chicago Law Review. As a simplified and modernized citation method, it tends to be closer to the Oxford Standard for Citation of Legal Authorities in its conventions.
