This guide was created by the Watson-Griffith Library using the MLA Handbook Ninth Edition. The official handbook is available online through the EBSCO database for additional reference, MLA 9th Edition Handbook. The guide here is a basic overview, so please consult the handbook or ask the library staff for guidance in citing anything not covered here. Keep in mind that these are guidelines and your professor may change certain aspects to fit their needs.
Always follow your instructor's guidelines, even if that seems contradictory to what you see here.
Since this guide is greatly simplified, if you can't find information you need here, consider visiting The Purdue OWL, which creates guides that can be helpful. Their guide for MLA 9 can be found at: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/.
