A short note on MLA

There are changes you need to know about!!

Titles of books are no longer underlined. Titles of books are to be written in Italics!! The Rise and Fall of Western Civilization by G. Nauss is a most informative tome of intense scope and magnitude.

Works Cited will also change slightly

Works Cited Pages Must Include… All you have been doing + one more thing You must include the publication medium such as, Print, Web, DVD, or CD.

What our Anthology stories might look like… Wilson, Budge. “The Metaphor.” Inside Stories II. Eds. Glen Kirkland and Richard Davies. Toronto: Harcourt Brace Canada, 1987. 65-80. Print.

Poetry would look like this… Frost, Robert. “The Road Not Taken.” Sound and Sense. 2nd ed. Ed. Laurence Perrine. Canada: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1963. 68-69. Print.

Newspapers look like this… Cohen, Sharon. “Too Young To Know.” The Daily News. [Halifax] 11 Feb. 2000: A3. Print. Use letters and numbers for sections and page numbers (If the article is continued on more than one page and it is not a consecutive page use a plus sign after the section and page number (C2+).

Films or Videos look like this… The Breakfast Club. Dir. John Hughes. Perf. Emilio Estevez, Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, and Judd Nelson. 1985 DVD Universal Studios, 2005.

Example (lecture by a teacher) In my English class the teacher explained that “George Orwell used satire and allusion when he crafted Joseph Stalin’s character counterpart in Animal Farm as Napoleon the pig due to Napoleon’s usurping of Animal Farm and turning it into a Fascist state” (Nauss).

Electronic Sources Frost, Robert. “Mowing.” A Boy’s Will. New York: Henry Holt, 1915. Project Bartleby Archive. Ed. Steven van Leeuwen. Dec. 1995. Columbia U. Web. 6 Mar.2002. <http://www.bartleby.com/117/19html>. Note carefully where the word “web” is.

Books in General Forster, E. M. A Passage to India. London: Penguin, 1979. Print.

Understandably This can be a bit overwhelming or confusing

Remember to check my website or other reputable source if in doubt Then you’ll be rockin’!!
