Introduction to MLA Bibliography Works Cited

Why do I need a bibliography? Every research project should be accompanied by a bibliography listing your sources. English and other humanities classes use the MLA (Modern Language Association) format for citing sources. The title of your bibliography in the MLA style is Works Cited. Keep track of the information you need for your bibliography as you do your research; it’s much harder to go back later and find the information.

Why do I need to cite my sources? To be honest and ethical To recognize someone else’s intellectual property To avoid plagiarism To avoid academic censure and/or legal trouble

What needs to be cited? Quotation = exact copy of author’s words. Paraphrase = author’s idea put in your own words, approximately same length. Borrowed idea = shorter summary of author’s original idea.

What does not need to be cited? FACTS that can be verified in 3 sources or information that is common knowledge or simply common sense. Examples of facts: Birth & death dates & places Locations of landmarks If in doubt, cite it!

Create a citation for each source that you use in your research You may use Noodle Tools to create your MLA style bibliography online. But remember that you are ultimately responsible for the correct formatting of your citations.

Rules for your MLA bibliography The title is Works Cited. List all sources in alphabetical order by the first word in the citation. The first word in each citation is the author’s last name or the title (if there is no author).

More rules for your MLA bibliography Double space the entire Works Cited page. Use a hanging indent for each citation: the 1st line of each entry is flush with the left margin & succeeding lines are indented 5 spaces. (The next slide shows an example of a Works Cited page.)
