MLA

Founded in 1883 by teachers and scholars, the Modern Language Association (MLA) promotes the study and teaching of language and literature; and, has developed rules for writing, punctuation, citation and reference.

 

For the hyper lazy, and those desirous of a quick fix, as many of us are in our instant gratification society, you need not follow the wonderfully colorful linked pages below.  Here are two tools to assist you in building you Works Cited (Reference) page. 

 

Here's a site that has an executable that will allow you to generate your work sources as they should appear on the reference page.  Third party, free software, use with caution!

 

This website  will do the same as the previous executable, but does not require you to download it.  This is a nifty tool for those who can’t seem to remember all the punctuation requirements.  Some assembly required.

 

On the Power Point page you'll find a short presentation on citation and quotation formats in accordance with MLA.

 

Here are a few sites to guide you through the reference and citation process:

 

This site will give you the reference page requirements for citation style (in color), courtesy of Long Island University.

 

For a general listing of the MLA rules use The Owl at Perdue University

 

Another good source is the MLA Frequently Asked Questions  (FAQ) page:

 

Take this little online tutorial on plagiarism!  It’s fun!  You’ll learn how not to submit a paper and commit plagiarism at the same time, as well some techniques in properly citing sources.
