Format of the Works Cited Page
Each In-Text Citation must point the reader to a full MLA citation in a Works Cited page at the end of your paper.
Remember these when formatting Works Cited page:
- Begin the Works Cited on a new page and center the words "Works Cited" at the top.
- List must be in alphabetical order by first Element of each citation (usually Author's Last Name)
- Use hanging indents. When you format hanging indents, the first line of each citation begins at the far left margin and each subsequent line of the citation is indented 1/2 inch. The 'Paragraph' tool in Microsoft Word allows you to choose the 'Hanging' option from the 'Special' dropdown menu in the 'Indentation' section.
