Works Cited(Bibliography)
Works cited is a list of citations made up of all the sources you consulted in preparation for writing a research paper. Citations are constructed using strict rules regarding punctuation, text format, and paragraph indentation. Here in school we use the MLA format. In a typical research paper the Works Cited are presented in alphabetical order by the first item listed (usually the author’s last name).
