MLA (Modern Language Association) style is commonly used to write papers and cite sources within the liberal arts and humanities. This PowerPoint offers examples for the general format of MLA research papers, in- text citations, endnotes/footnotes, and the Works Cited page.
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.f you are asked to use MLA format, be sure to consult the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers (7th edition). Publishing scholars and graduate students should also consult the MLA Style Manual and Guide to Scholarly Publishing (3rd edition).
