(Examples compiled from the Owl at Purdue webpage and eee.comnet.edu)
I. MLA uses the following specifications for the overall formatting of a paper:
Double Space
One Inch Margins: Top, Bottom, and Sides
12 point font
Standard type font such as Times Roman or Ariel
A. MLA uses a heading instead of a title page.
Example:
Arthur Hawkins Hawkins 1
Williamson
AP English IV, Period 6
26 September 2017
My Career as a WriterB. The MLA Header puts the writers last name plus page number on every page (including the first page and Works Cited page(s)), in the upper right corner.
Example:Hawkins 1II. Parenthetical Documentation cites the source references internally in your paper. This is also referred to as internal documentation. In MLA format, this replaces footnotes and endnotes.
A. MLA uses in-text Parenthetical Citations for documentation purposes. When a writer uses researched ideas, summarizes and/or paraphrases an author, and/or quotes an author directly, source must be documented at this direct time period in the paper. The following examples are the most commonly used citations. Please refer to the following on-line links to help answer less common citation questions:
HYPERLINK "http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/557/01/" http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/557/01/
HYPERLINK "http://www.ccc.commnet.edu/mla/index.shtml" http://www.ccc.commnet.edu/mla/index.shtml
B. Most commonly used citation examples (remember to use 12 point font; these examples are smaller for reference only):
Direct quote from one author:
Like so many of my generation in graduate school, I had turned to literature as a kind of substitute for formal religion, which no longer fed my soul, or for therapy, which I could not afford (OReilley ). Direct quote with the authors name referenced in the text:
OReilley asserts, Like so many of my generation in graduate school, I had turned to literature as a kind of substitute for formal religion, which no longer fed my soul, or for therapy, which I could not afford.Two Quotes from the same author used in succession:
Romeo and Juliet presents an opposition between two worlds: "the world of the everyday," associated with the adults in the play, and "the world of romance," associated with the two lovers (OReilley). Romeo and Juliet's language of love nevertheless becomes "fully responsive to the tang of actuality (OReilley).Work by more two or three authors:
Very little is now known about how dolphins and whales communicate (Akmajian, Demers, and Harnish).
Citing a quotation from someone else in a source:
Angelina Jolie who visited one of these camps wrote, I went around in a sick daze for hours after witnessing unimaginable suffering (qtd. In Stein).Citation of more than one page:
French points out that The Grapes of Wrath has been applauded throughout the world since its publication, and remains one of the greatest works of American literature because of its representation of the struggle to reach the American Dream.Cite only the title of the article when referencing an encyclopedia, reference work, or when the article is by an anonymous writer.
One cause of the Dust Bowl was misuse of the land (Dust Bowl).Cite and format long quotes of more than four lines by brining in the margins on either side to set off the quotation the following way:
Nelly Dean treats Heathcliff poorly and dehumanizes him throughout her narration:
They entirely refused to have it in bed with them, or
even in their room, and I had no more sense, so, I put
it on the landing of the stairs, hoping it would be gone
on the morrow. By chance, or else attracted by hearing
his voice, it crept to Mr. Earnshaw's door, and there he
found it on quitting his chamber. Inquiries were made
as to how it got there; I was obliged to confess, and in
recompense for my cowardice and inhumanity was sent
out of the house (Bronte).
It is a long standing tradition of Romantic era literature to portray the upper class as snobbish.
III. Works Cited Page
A. MLA uses the following specifications for the overall formatting of the Works Cited page:
Double Space
1 inch margins
12 point size
Arrange entries in alphabetical order by authors' last names (surnames), or by title for sources without authors.
Capitalize the first word and all other principle words of the titles and subtitles of cited works listed. (Do not capitalize articles, prepositions, coordinating conjunctions, or the "to" in infinitives.)
Shorten the publisher's name.
When multiple publishers are listed, include all of them, placing a semicolon between each.
When more than one city is listed for the same publisher, use only the first city.
Use the conjunction "and," not an ampersand [&], when listing multiple authors of a single work.
Pagination: Do not use the abbreviations p. or pp. to designate page numbers.
Indentation: Align the first line of the entry flush with the left margin, and indent all subsequent lines (5 to 7 spaces) to form a "hanging indent."
Underlining vs. Italics: In printed material submitted for grading or editing, words that would be italicized in a publication are usually underlined to avoid ambiguity. If you wish to use italics rather than underlining, check your instructor's or editor's preferences.
B. Most commonly documented sources for a Works Cited page. The following examples are the most commonly used bibliographic forms. Please refer to the following on-line links to help answer less common citation questions:

Do not underline, or put your title in italics
Titles of novels, books, and plays are underlined. Titles of short stories, lyrics, and articles are put in quotations .
Sometimes internet articles only have titles and no author:
Note that you keep the long quote double spaced
Note that when the text resumes, the margins go back to their original format.
Use the full web address. Cut the address at each / in order to make addresses fit on one line
