With Chicago Style footnotes, how do you include a citation for something you didn't quote in your essay?

I have to use Chicago style footnotes in an essay I'm writing, but I don't specifically cite two of the sources I used for ';background info,'; nor do I paraphrase a portion of them. Thus, I don't think I need a footnote. So how do I include citations for these sources? Do I have a Bibliography page in addition to a Notes page?With Chicago Style footnotes, how do you include a citation for something you didn't quote in your essay?
