Developed by the Modern Language Association, this style is most widely used for research papers in the humanities. Citing sources in this style consists of two parts: • In-text citations • A works-cited list See and. With the 8th edition of the MLA Handbook, the approach to citing sources shifts from creating entries based on the type of source cited (books, articles, etc.) to recording common features of the work.

While this approach is more flexible for new media, it may be challenging for you to know which core elements are relevant to the source you are citing. Thus, this guide also provides some examples of commonly cited sources. For more detailed information see MLA Handbook, 54-58, 116-128. An in-text citation provides your reader with two pieces of information: • The first element from the corresponding works-cited list entry, usually the author's last name • The location of the cited information in the work, usually a page number Standard Formatting of the In-Text Citation • Put the page number in parentheses • Include the author's name (or the title for works with no author) in the sentence or in the parentheses before the page number.

The link between racism and union representation is important ('Black Workers Matter' 18). • If it is clear from the context which work you are citing, use only the page number. Later, the protagonist of Jane Eyre proclaims, 'I would always rather be happy than dignified' (413). • Place the parenthetical reference at a natural pause in the text or after the quotation marks for direct quotations.

• Multiple authors: 2-3 authors use the last names of each. For more than 3 authors, use the first author's last name and et al. (Smith, Jones, and Brown 323) (Bia et al. Anstoss 3 Originaldaten 2011 Hyundai. 161) • For authors with the same last name, include their first initial. Shepard 36) (J.

Shepard 212) • For multiple works by the same author, include a shorten form of the title. We should all try to 'live in the Past, the Present, and the Future' (Dickens, A Christmas Carol 95). • For works with no page numbers, use explicitly numbered parts of the work (paragraphs, sections, chapters). Use author (or title) alone if there are no numbered parts.

(Pushkin, ch. 5) According to the Human Rights Campaign's map of state laws and policies. • For time-based works, use a time stamp in the form of hh:mm:ss. ('Hell Hath No Fury' 00:15:23-00:18:58).

The 'Works Cited' list provides details on all sources you used in your paper. If you include other sources consulted during your research, title the page 'Works Consulted.'

Core Elements The menu below lists the core elements in a works-cited entry with its associated punctuation mark. Use information found in the source itself; do not use information about the source found on websites or in library catalogs. If an element does not exist for the source you are citing, skip it.

The title of the source is often located near the author's name and prominently displayed. • Enter the title exactly as it appears in the source, except for standardizing capitalization and punctuation. • Place the title in quotation marks if the source is part of a larger work. For example: • article • essay, poem, short story • television episode • blog posting • Italicize the title if the work is self-contained and independent, such as books and films. • Untitled works: Give a generic description in place of the title.
