no of pages in book

How do I get the number of pages in a book to show in the bibliography when they have been entered in the info screen?

    That depends on the citation style you are using. Most styles do not have that programmed in. Which style are you using?

    2 options for you:
    1. You choose a different citation style that has it.
    2. You edit the current citation style, if you need to stick to the style you're using.

    Thanks for that.

    I use Chicago Manual of style so would prefer to edit. Sorry, I'm a complete ignoramus; how do I edit the style?

    I can help. Which of the many Chicago styles are you using and where and how do you want the number of pages to appear exactly. Please provide an example.

    I'm waiting for my supervisor to get back to me, but I should think, comma after 2015, followed by page nos.
