Hi everyone,

I’ve put together a sample Works Cited page that shows you entries for a poem from our textbook, a poem you’re using that’s online, and a newspaper article you’ve found through a database.  Please note that this is a sample and does not list four sources. 

Your Works Cited page should:

1. have a minimum of four sources listed in alphabetical order (the poem you’re writing about, and three newspaper articles).
2. be double-spaced
3. use a hanging indent for all entries (where only the first line for each entry is indented)

To help you compose the Works Cited page for Paper #2, there are different online resources available:

Or, you can look at MLA format (8th edition) on the Purdue University Online Writing Lab (OWL):

You can also use a citation manager when you do your research, or export the citations.  There are many roads that can lead you to a correctly formatted Works Cited page!

Prof. Leonard mentioned https://zbib.org as a free citation manager that you might try.
