1 Bibliography/Works Cited Tips for MLA The following pages provide helpful MLA bibliography/works cited page tips, as well as examples of sources using MLA format. First, I wanted to provide you with some notes and details, so you will be able to create an accurate bibliography page for your project. Also, you will find a textbook explanation and example works cited page from the writing program our class will use for term papers later in the year. 1. List all sources used for any part of your oral presentation, reading journal responses, and/or projects, including images, graphics, and pictures. 2. Alphabetize each entry according to the author s last name. Works with more than one author are alphabetized under the name of whichever author is listed first in the source itself. 3. PUNCTUATION is VERY important. Observe the use and placement of periods and commas, especially in relation to parentheses and quotation marks. A colon separates a title from a subtitle and the place of publication from the publisher s name. A colon also precedes page numbers for articles from periodicals. Use angle brackets to set off an electronic address in citations to electronic sources. (Double space after periods and colons. Single space after commas.) 4. The first line of each cited source is at the left margin. Any additional lines need to be evenly indented (use the Tab button). Books: 1. Author. Give the last name first, followed by a comma and single space and the first name, followed by a period and a double space. 2. Title. Underline the title of the book, and capitalize all major words, followed by a period and a double space. Always include the book s subtitle, use a colon to separate the main title from the subtitle. Make the underlining continuous, not separate under each word. 3. Edition after the first. If the book is an edition later after the 1 st, provide the edition number of the book, followed by a period and a double space. 4. Reprinting of book. If the book was published over a century ago or has been reissued in a new format, then note the original publication date before the publisher s name, followed by a period and a double space, and the current publication date following the publisher s name, followed by a period. 5. Publication data. Provide the city of publication, followed by a colon and a double space; the brief name of the publisher, followed by a comma and a single space; and the latest copyright date shown on the copyright page, followed by a period. (Note: To cite books published by universities, abbreviate university as U and press as P but without periods. Also, leave out words such as Incorported, use the principal name of the publisher only.) Book template: Last name, First name. Title Underlined. City: Publisher, date. Last name, First name. Title Underlined. # ed. City: Publisher, date. Last name, First name. Title Underlined. Original Publication date. City: Publisher, Latest Publication date.
2 Various book examples: Example of a book with one author: Smith, Jeanne Rosier. Reading and Writing: The Real Story.
