UnBound Reports MLA Formatting: Creating Title Page, Table of Contents, Endnotes/Footnotes and Bibliography/Works Cited

Title Page The first page of a report. It gives the title of a report, the name of the writer, the name of the person for whom the report was prepared and the date. The academic format contains the name of the course. Good resource for information: http://www.citationmachine.net/title-page/new

Sample Title Page

Title Page Format Use ss and center the page vertically Center all lines horizontally. Type the report title in CAPS and bold, ds the subtitle in initial Caps Press enter 12xs and type By followed by your name. Press enter 12xs, ss type teacher’s name, name of course and current date.

Table of Contents Usually follows the title page and is an outline of the headings in a report.

Table of Contents Format 2 inches from top or enter 6xs, center and type the word CONTENTS in CAPS and bold, then ds. Type major headings in all CAPS, leave a blank line before and after them Indent subheadings and type them with initial caps and ss. Align page number at the right and precede them with dot leaders……………………………..

Footnotes and Endnotes List name of the author, title of the book or article, publisher, place and year of publication, and the page #’s being referenced. Footnotes appear at the bottom of the page of reference Endnotes appear at the end of a report or a separate page Both appear in the body of a report by superior figures.

Sample Footnotes/Endnotes Some have argued that such an investigation would be fruitless. Scholars have argued for years that this claim has no basis,1 so we would do well to ignore it. This appears at the bottom of the page: 1. Heller, Steven, and Karen Pomeroy. Design Literacy: Understanding Graphic Design.

Bibliography An alphabetical listing of sources used in a report (similar to a works cited).

Format for Bibliography Center and type the title, BIBLIOGRAPHY in CAPS and bold (approx 2” from top margin). Hanging indent for each entry; leave a blank line between entries.
