Citing Sources Using the MLA Handbook

Scope: This guide is designed to help researchers learn how to cite sources using the Modern Languages Association (MLA) Handbook. This style is used in the arts and humanities. This guide is not a comprehensive list of all the types of materials that can be cited; for more information, refer to:

Gibaldi, Joseph. MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers. 6th ed.
New York: Modern Language Association of America, 2003.
McKeldin Library Reference Desk PN147.G53 2003

The FAQ section of the MLA Web site also addresses questions concerning style issues.

This style guide has been taken offline so that important revisions can be made. In the interim we suggest you either:
  • borrow a copy from UM Libraries (see above)
  • purchase a current edition of this style manual at the University Book Center
  • go through a commercial vendor
