4.10.08

In the interest of continuing with our citation and mla format work, please do the following exercise and email me the results by 8pm on Sunday night.

Using the OWL Purdue MLA Formatting Styleguide found to the right, go through and familiarize yourself with the various possible formats one needs for various situation (web citation, books with no author, books with three authors, etc). You'll never have to memorize it, but it's good to get a general idea.

Then, do the exercise found to the right (Works Cited Exercise). Open the document and create a finished works cited page from those random, unformatted entries (which means, in addition to formatting each entry, alphabetizing, etc). Use the OWL Purdue MLA Formatting Styleguide to find the answers to how to format each entry.

You can either reformat the exercise itself, create a new word document, or paste the final works cited page into an email (which will change the format, but we'll let that pass). Once you have done this, send the finished product to me.
