5. Quotes – A single Character When quoting any character, you should offer a “lead-in.” A lead-in provides a brief context for the quote that you are about to cite. For example: John Proctor expresses his trust in Reverend Hale’s reasoning when he states, “I’ve heard you to be a sensible man, Mr. Hale. I hope you’ll leave some of it in Salem.” (Miller, 1280) After the quote, you must identify the author and the page number where the quote is located.

6. Quotes – Multiple Characters You might find yourself needing to quote a conversation instead of a single character, in this case, after your lead-in indent each character’s name: In Act 1, it is clear during their conversation, that John Proctor does not want to continue an affair with Abigail Williams: PROCTOR: Abby, I never give you hope to wait for me. ABIGAIL, now beginning to anger – she can’t believe it: I have something better than hope I think! PROCTOR: Abby, you’ll put it out of mind. I’ll not be comin’ for you more. (Miller, 1270)

7. Works Cited Basic Format The author’s name or a book with a single author's name appears in last name, first name format. The basic form for a book citation is: Lastname, Firstname. Title of Book. City of Publication: Publisher, Year of Publication. Medium of Publication.

8. Works Cited Examples Book with One Author Gleick, James. Chaos: Making a New Science. New York: Penguin, 1987. Print. Henley, Patricia. The Hummingbird House. Denver: MacMurray, 1999. Print.

9. Works Cited Examples Book with No Author List by title of the book. Incorporate these entries alphabetically just as you would with works that include an author name. For example, the following entry might appear between entries of works written by Miller, Shaun and Reagan, Jonathan. Prentice Hall Literature: The American Experience. Boston: Pearson Education, Inc., 2007. Print. Remember that for an in-text (parenthetical) citation of a book with no author, provide the name of the work in the signal phrase and the page number in parentheses. You may also use a shortened version of the title of the book accompanied by the page number.
