The DOI or URL is usually the last element in a citation and should be followed by a period. Use a DOI in your citation if you can otherwise use a URL. Many scholarly databases use a DOI (digital object identifier). For online sources, you should include a location to show readers where you found the source.You do not need to provide subscription information in addition to the database name. If you're citing an article or a publication that was originally issued in print form but that you retrieved from an online database, you should type the online database name in italics.If a span of pages is used, mark it with the abbreviation “pp.” before the page number (e.g., pp. 157-68). If only one page of a print source is used, mark it with the abbreviation “p.” before the page number (e.g., p.If the excerpt spans multiple pages, use “pp.” Note that MLA style uses a hyphen in a span of pages. In our example, the digit in the hundreds place is repeated between 225 and 250, so you omit the 2 from 250 in the citation: pp. 225-50 (Note: MLA style dictates that you should omit the first sets of repeated digits. If you refer to a journal article that appeared on pages 225 through 250, list the page numbers on your Works Cited page as pp. List page numbers of sources efficiently, when needed.
Indent the second and subsequent lines of citations by 0.5 inches to create a hanging indent.Double space all citations, but do not skip spaces between entries.The citation entries themselves should be aligned with the left margin. Label the page Works Cited (do not italicize the words Works Cited or put them in quotation marks) and center the words Works Cited at the top of the page.It should have the same one-inch margins and last name, page number header as the rest of your paper.
