5 IV. Parenthetical (In-Text) Citations Students using MLA format briefly credit a source with parenthetical citations in the text of an essay and also provide complete access information for each source in the Works Cited list. For example, the same source will appear in the text of your paper (indicating author and page number, if available)... Gil Evans and Miles Davis collaborated on Sketches of Spain, recorded in November 1958 and March 1960 (Raether 535). or Keith Raether notes that Sketches of Spain, recorded in November 1958 and March 1960, resulted from collaboration between Gil Evans and Miles Davis (535). as well as in your Works Cited list (providing all citation information): Raether, Keith. Coltrane s Sound. Southern Review 43.3 (Summer 2007): Wilson Web. Web. 26 Aug For in-text citations of a work with no author, use an abbreviation of the title: ( Jazz in Arizona 4). For an electronic source that numbers its screens or paragraphs rather than pages, give the author s last name and par. or screen separated by a comma: (Guilder, screen 4) or (Miles, par. 17). Parenthetical citations If a work has no page, screen or paragraph numbers, cite the title and appear before the punctuation that author within the text, eliminating the need for parenthetical citation: concludes the sentence Kurosawa s Rashomon was one of the first Japanese films to attract a (name #). Western audience. For multiple titles from the same author, use name and abbreviated title: (Saunders, History of Jazz 24). Provide credit for indirect sources as well: (qtd. in Saunders 17). V. Formatting the Works Cited Page Place the page number in the upper right corner ½ inch from the top of the page and continue numbering from the body of the paper (use a header). Center the title, Works Cited, one inch from the top of the page in plain font (no bold, italic, underlined or large fonts). Use one-inch margins on all sides. Use hanging indention for all entries (begin each entry flush with left margin; subsequent lines begin ½ inch from left margin). Alphabetize entries by first word in entry, ignoring a, an, the, or Rev. Double space the entire Works Cited document both between and within entries. SEE REVERSE FOR A MODEL WORKS CITED PAGE
