A SAMPLE WORKS CITED PAGE

The Modern Language Association format calls the list of sources the "Works Cited" page. A sample "Works Cited" page has certain general characteristics:

sources are listed alphabetically, by authors' last names
sources without authors are listed alphabetically by either the editor's last name or by the title of the work (disregarding the words "a," "an," and "the")
each source entry starts at the left margin
2nd & subsequent lines of each entry are indented 5 spaces
titles should be capitalized correctly in each entry

A sample "Works Cited" page in MLA format looks like this.

NOTE:: Titles have been italicized. When writing your papers, either underline or italicize titles.
