1 MLA In-text Citations A parenthetical citation (in-text citation) must follow all direct quotations and all paraphrased material. Immediately following a direct quotation or paraphrased material, place the author s last name, a space, and then the page number from which you are quoting or summarizing. Short Quotations A short quotation runs no more than four lines of prose or three lines of verse in a paper. EXAMPLES: If the author s name DOES appear in the sentence, only the page number is needed: Manguel asserts that it would be hard to exaggerate the importance of the scribe s role in Mesopotamian society (180). If the author s name does NOT appear in the sentence, both the last name of the author and the page number of the text is needed: Others believe that it would be hard to exaggerate the importance of the scribe s role in Mesopotamian society (Manguel 180). If there is NO AUTHOR listed, use an abbreviated version of the title: In literate societies learning to read is something of an initiation, a ritualized passage out of a state of dependency and rudimentary communication (History of Reading 50). If citing from an INDIRECT source, (an indirect source is a source cited within another source) For indirect quotations, use "qtd. in" to indicate the source you actually consulted. Ravitch argues that high schools are pressured to act as "social service centers, and they don't do that well" (qtd. in Weisman 259). Note that for a short quotation, the punctuation of the sentence comes AFTER the citation. MLA Format 1 (last updated 9/2013)
2 Long Quotations A long quotation runs more than four lines of prose or three lines of verse in a paper. ***When using long quotations: - Indent entire quotation one inch - Do NOT use quotation marks - Final punctuation follows the last sentence of quote and NOT the citation EXAMPLES: If the author s name DOES appear in the sentence: In her famous speech, Sojourner Truth says, Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud puddles, or gives me any best place, and aren t I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a woman? (144-45) If the author s name does NOT appear in the sentence: The hero describes her mother: It would have been enough to think that even one of these dangers could befall a child. And even though the birthdates corresponded to only one danger my mother worried about them all. This was because she couldn t figure out how the Chinese dates, based on the lunar calendar, translated into American dates. So by taking them all into account, she had absolute faith she could prevent every one of them. (Tan 124) If there is NO AUTHOR listed: As you discover information and opinions on your topic, You should keep track of sources that you may use for your paper. A record of such sources is called a working bibliography. Your preliminary reading will probably provide the first titles for this list. (MLA Handbook) MLA Format 2 (last updated 9/2013)
3 Paraphrased Material All paraphrased material must be cited, following the rules of the SHORT QUOTATION. EXAMPLE OF GOOD PARAPHRASE: Original: The most blatant form of plagiarism is to obtain and submit as your own a paper written by someone else. Other, less conspicuous forms of plagiarism include the failure to give appropriate acknowledgement when repeating or paraphrasing another s wording, when taking a particularly apt phrase, and when paraphrasing another s argument or presenting another s line of thinking. Paraphrased Material: It is plagiarism when you copy someone else s work, don t cite your courses, or repeat what a scholar has said without giving credit to that scholar (Gibaldi 70-71). In-text Citation for Electronic Sources Page or paragraph numbers are not necessary In the text include the first item that corresponds to the sources works cited entry. Garcia stated that Fitzcarraldo is "...a beautiful and terrifying critique of obsession and colonialism." Example (for multiple sources by the same author): Garcia stated that Fitzcarraldo is "...a beautiful and terrifying critique of obsession and colonialism" ( Herzog: a Life ). If an item matching the source to the works cited entry is not included in the text, you must use a parenthetical citation. One online film critic stated that Fitzcarraldo is "...a beautiful and terrifying critique of obsession and colonialism" (Garcia). A parenthetical citation should include the first item that corresponds to the works cited entry. MLA Format 3 (last updated 9/2013)
4 Works Cited Garcia, Elizabeth. "Herzog: a Life." Online Film Critics Corner. The Film School of New Hampshire, 2 May Web. 8 Jan Parenthetical Citation (Garcia) If there are two sources from the same author, give the author name and provide the next item within the works cited entry that distinguishes it from the other source within the parenthetical citation. One online film critic stated that Fitzcarraldo is "...a beautiful and terrifying critique of obsession and colonialism" (Garcia, Herzog: a Life ). Works Cited Page According to MLA style, you must have a Works Cited page at the end of a paper in which you have used outside sources. All entries in the Works Cited page must to correspond to the in-text citations in the paper. The Basics PAGE SETUP The Works Cited is a SEPARATE PAGE at the END of the paper You should continue pagination as normal The title of this page is Works Cited and should be centered. No underlining, no quotation marks. ENTRIES EVERY SOURCE cited in the paper must be cited in the Works Cited page. All entries are DOUBLE SPACED Sources are ALPHABETIZED according to author s last name Lines following the first line of each citation should be indented ½ inch from the left margin TITLES CAPITALIZE each word in the title and subtitle, except for articles, prepositions, and conjunctions that are not the first word MLA Format 4 (last updated 9/2013)
