COMPILING YOUR WORKS CITED

COMPILING YOUR WORKS CITED

General Guidelines: You must indicate where you find material you borrow—whether you quote it or paraphrase it. If you don’t cite your sources, you are committing plagiarism.

Format:

Begin "Works Cited" on a separate page, after the text of your paper.
Center "Works Cited" at the top of the page.
Alphabetize entries by the author’s last name. If the author’s last name is unknown, alphabetize by the first word in the title (other than a, an, or the).
Start each entry flush left. If an entry runs more than one line, indent each subsequent line.
Underline titles.
