Different ways of citing resources from your research

There are many different ways of citing resources from your research. The citation style sometimes depends on the academic discipline involved.

 

a) MLA:

– MLA (Modern Language Association) style is used by the Humanities.

– MLA format follows the author-page method of in-text citation. This means that the author’s last name and the page number(s) from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken must appear in the text, and a complete reference should appear on your Works Cited page.
