This PowerPoint presentation is ?2013 by Robin L. Simmons.All Rights Reserved. The Works Cited Page You’ve done the research; now it’s time to present your sources! Know these quirks about the works cited page: The works cited page is the last page of the essay. Include MLA-style page numbering—your last name and the page number at the top right. The list of entries is alphabetized. The entire page is double spaced [with no extra spacing between the entries]. For each entry, all lines after the first are indented five spaces. Punctuation and capitalization require your careful attention. Many professors carefully scrutinize the works cited page, looking for errors. Ah, ha! You missed the period after the date accessed! Minus five —no, ten —points! So you have to scrutinize your own work just as carefully! Ah, ha! I missed the period after the date accessed! I’d better fix that if I don’t want to lose ten points! Let’s take a look at a sample . . . An entry for a book will have this information: The name(s) of the author(s) The Title of the Book [in italics] The city of publication The publisher The year of publication The publication medium Author’s last name, first name.

Ancient Egypt: An Illustrated Reference to the Myths, Religions, Pyramids and Temples of the Land of the Pharaohs. New York: Anness Publishing Inc., 2010. Print. An entry for a book with more than three authors looks like this: Freed, Rita, et al. Pharaohs of the Sun: Akhenaten, Nefertiti, Tutankhamen. Boston: Bulfinch Press, 2007. Print.
