  1. Works Cited and In-Text Citations What are these and when do I use them?

  2. Works Cited Works Cited "Blueprint Lays Out Clear Path for Climate Action." Environmental Defense Fund. Environmental Defense Fund, 8 May 2007. Web. 24 May 2009. Clinton, Bill. Interview by Andrew C. Revkin. “Clinton on Climate Change.” New York Times. New York Times, May 2007. Web. 25 May 2009. Dean, Cornelia. "Executive on a Mission: Saving the Planet." New York Times.

  3. Where does this go? • Your works cited page goes on a separate page at the end of your paper. • It must: • Be in alphabetical order • Be double spaced • Be in MLA style (Owl Purdue MLA for instructions)

  4. In-Text Citations Where do they go? In-text citations go in the research paper. You always put them at the end of any sentence that uses research, whether it is paraphrased or directly quoted from your research. (You do NOT put quotes around a paraphrase, only direct quotes.)

  5. What does it look like? In-text citations are MUCH shorter than regular citations, because you only use the first key word from the regular citation.

  6. The words underlined are the words you would use in your in-text citations. Works Cited "Blueprint Lays Out Clear Path for Climate Action." Environmental Defense Fund. Environmental Defense Fund, 8 May 2007. Web. 24 May 2009. Clinton, Bill. Interview by Andrew C. Revkin. “Clinton on Climate Change.” New York Times. New York Times, May 2007. Web. 25 May 2009. Dean, Cornelia. "Executive on a Mission: Saving the Planet." New York Times. New York Times, 22 May 2007. Web. 25 May 2009. Ebert, Roger. "An Inconvenient Truth." Rev. of An Inconvenient Truth, dir. Davis Guggenheim. rogerebert.com. Sun-Times News Group, 2 June 2006. Web. 24 May 2009.

  7. So what does this look like? (Blueprint). In a sentence, it looks like this: The Earth’s climate is changing rapidly and we must do something to stop it (Clinton). This is the in-text citation

  8. In-text citation vs. Regular Citation • In-text Citation (Clinton). • Regular Citation Clinton, Bill. Interview by Andrew C. Revkin. “Clinton on Climate Change.” New York Times. New York Times, May 2007. Web. 25 May 2009.

  9. So… • In-text citations go IN THE TEXT. • They are typically no longer than two words. • They go at the end of ANY sentence that uses research. • You should have a minimum of two in-text citations in every paragraph, because you should be using research in your paper. It’s a research paper.

  10. So… • Works Cited (your regular citations) go on their own separate page at the end of the paper. • Double Spaced • MLA Style • Alphabetical Order • Indent the every line but the first line
