MLA Citations

Besides the MLA Citation handout you have from class (also posted on our wiki), there are a number of helpful online resources. A student's recent suggestion to use Purdue University's OWL website is a great one. You could also go an online guide produced by Long Island University or the "cheat sheet" version with KnightCite in which you plug in fields and the program spits out a bibliographic citation for you. For this class, you will most likely not need to use MLA bibliographic format because you are not required to cite any outside sources. Your papers will use MLA to the extent that you use internal citations and quotation guidelines.
