Full citations are generally placed in
this MLA citation format:
Last name of the author, First name of the
author. “Source’s Title.” Container’s Title, roles
and names of any other individuals who helped
contribute to the source, the version of the
source, any numbers associated with the
source, the name of the publisher, the date the
source was published, the location where
individuals can find the source themselves
(usually a URL or page range).
Specific Components of a Citation
NAME OF THE
AUTHOR
The author’s name is usually the first item listed in the
MLA citation. Author names start with the last name,
then a comma is added, and then the author’s first name
(and middle name if applicable) is at the end. A period
closes this information
Two examples of how an author’s
name can be listed in a full citation:
Twain, Mark.
Two examples
of how to cite To cite a source with
two authors: three or more
Paxton, Roberta J., authors, place the

Specific Components of a Citation

TITLES AND
CONTAINERS
The titles are written as they are found on the source
and in title form, meaning the important words start
with a capital.
Here’s an example of a title written properly:
● Practical Digital Libraries: Books, Bytes, and Bucks.
Specific Components of a Citation

HER CONTRIBUTORS
Many sources have people, besides the author, who
contribute to the source. If your research project focuses
on an additional individual besides the author, or you
feel as though including other contributors will help the
reader locate the source themselves, include their names
in the citation.
Here’s an example of a citation for a children’s book
with the name of the illustrator included

Rubin, Adam. Dragons Love


Tacos. Illustrated by Daniel Salmieri,
Penguin, 2012.

The names of editors, directors, performers, translators,


illustrators, and narrators can often be found in this part of the
citation.
Common
Citation
Examples
Place the information in this format:
Last name, First name of the Article’s Author.
“Title of the Article.” Title of the
Magazine, Date published, page range.
MLA format citation for the magazine
article above:
Gopnik, Adam. “A New Man: Ernest
Hemingway, Revised and Revisited.” The
New Yorker, 3 July 2017, pp. 61-66.
