How do you cite a source? MLA uses parenthetical citations when citing in the body of the essay: Ex. Will you turn the parlour off?" he asked.  "That's my family. (Bradbury 73). At the end of your paper, include a “bibliography” that lists all of the sources you used in your paper. Follow this formula: Lastname, Firstname. Title of Book.
