Why use the Hornet Style Book
You will find yourself citing sources very often.
The general rule of thumb is that when it’s not your original idea or analysis, you must give credit to whomever’s idea, statement of fact or interpretation it was.
That includes paraphrasing as well as direct quote or factual info.
….(in text) citation…
Citations should always be inserted at the END of the sentence.
If several sentences are from the same source, insert after the last sentence before changing to a new source or to your own comments.
Use the author’s last name and the page number. If you use the same author but different page numbers, you can just put the page # in the parentheses
Location of citation
The market revolution included many changes to society, including those to transportation and industrialization. In order for women to respond to those changes, they had to increase the work that they did to include work inside and outside of the home (Howe 46). This did not sit well with the likes of Catherine Beecher, who responded with a series of letters in books on the subject of the doctrine of separate spheres (55). In her work she identified four virtues of womanhood (Evans 29) This shows that women were mixed in their views about roles and rights at this time.
It might look like this…
Is there an identifiable author or editor? What is the title of the work? What is the format? (Book? Film? Website?) When was it published? Where was it published? Who published it? What date did you access the online
information?
What information do you need when citing your sources?
The following directions always apply: Name of student, page number for works cited page is in the
top right hand corner of the page. Works Cited – is always on a separate page at the end of the
paper. “Works Cited” is centered (no bold, italicizing, or underlining) Entries are always in alphabetical order and double spaced.
Second line of the citation is always indented. MLA now requires a publication marker – denote whether the
entry is Print or Web. Urls are NOT required. Write Web before the date of access in
the entry. Titles are italicized all books, periodicals, photographs, films,
etc. Web entries with no author begin with title of the article in
quotes.
Simple Guidelines for a Works Cited PAGE
You are researching the American Revolution and you must create a Works Cited for your sources.
Some of your sources include a book, a map, an online article from a database, a web site, and a film.
Use note cards to record your information about your sources.
