MLA (or Modern Language Association) style is a particular way of formatting a research paper as well as a particular way of citing sources. MLA is an "author page number" system which is most commonly used in the liberal arts and humanities. While this guide provides some general tips for citing sources and offer a brief sample of some frequently used citations, it is not intended to be inclusive nor should it replace a good handbook or instruction in a particular course. For more advanced help, please consult MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers (7th edition) or your instructor.
