Citing Sources

Once we find an online or print source to use in our research papers, we must cite the work. We give credit to an author or artist by creating a Works Cited List or other type of resource list. That way, anyone reading your work can track down the sources you used. The Library 10 workbook gives examples of MLA format for a variety of sources. Or, take advantage of the MLA Formatting and Style Guide from the Perdue University Writing Lab.
