MLA 9th edition citation examples and formatting guide
View examples for how to format citations at MLA's website or use the Houff Library's MLA 9th edition citation handout. This handout provides examples for formatting Works Cited information and in-text citations.
You are only responsible for including information that is readily available to you through the resource itself—for example, if a book does not supply an edition, you do not need to include that information in your citation. The following are abbreviated: month of publication, edition statement, and longer publisher names. For more information on abbreviations see the MLA manual.
