MLA is first and foremost a set of guidelines for including parenthetical information to cite sources. It focuses on author information when giving credit to sources, so most citation involves using the names of the author or authors of any source.
MLA format follows the author-page method of in-text citation. This means that the author's last name and the page number(s) from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken must appear in the text, and a complete reference should appear on your Works Cited page. The source information required in a parenthetical citation depends (1.) upon the source medium (e.g. Print, Web, DVD) and (2.) upon the sourceâs entry on the Works Cited (bibliography) page. 2  Any source information that you provide in-text must correspond to the source information on the Works Cited page.
