When citing a web site, take note of the author, title, the publisher, publication date, and the date you accessed the site.
The medium of publication for all electronic sources is Web.
MLA no longer requires the use of URLs in MLA citations, unless the reader would not be able to locate the item without it. If you do include the URL, enclose it in angle brackets followed by a period, e.g., <http://www.blakearchive.org>.
For each type of source in this guide, both the general form and a specific example will be provided.
The following format will be used:
Parenthetical Citation - entry that appears in the body of your paper.
Works Cited - entry that appears at the end of your paper.
Information on citing and several of the examples were drawn from the MLA Handbook (7th ed.).
Numbers in parentheses refer to specific pages in the manual.
Hints:
Author Surname, First Name. "Title of the Work." Title of Site. Name of sponsoring institution or publisher, Day Month Year of Publication. Medium. Date of Access [Day Month Year].
