MLA CITATION

Below the slides on your graphic organizer, record the following notes. Then complete your MLA citations.

MLA Basics

Your citations must be on their own paper (slide). This page (slide) should be titled Works Cited, should be centered, and should be in Times New Roman, 12-point font.

Citations should be in alphabetical order.

The first line is NOT indented; however, each subsequent line IS. This is known as a hanging indent.

Titles of shorter works, such as poems or articles, should be in quotations. Titles of longer works, such as novels, should be italicized.

For websites, include all information that you can find.
