  1. Works Cited Page 101 Mr. Czarnecki – Freshman English

  2. What is it? The works cited is an alphabetical list of materials placed at theend of your paper, project, or presentation. It includes only those works actually cited in the body of your paper, speech, presentation, etc. If your list includes works consulted but not actually cited, use the title “Bibliography” or “Works Consulted.”

  3. Why do I need one? • You must document sources by indicating what information you have used--whether facts, opinions, or quotations--and where you found this information. Works Cited also provides the reader with a list of sources for further information.  To use another person's ideas or expressions in your writing without acknowledging the source is plagiarism. • A works-cited list should be included with each paper, project, or presentation.

  4. Works Cited 101 • Alphabetize your entries by author’s last name, do not number them. • If you don’t know the author, alphabetize by the title of the book or article. • Your title is Works Cited underlined and in the same font and size as the rest. • Double space and indent the second line of any entry that is over one line. To do this sometimes you have to hit “enter” at the end of the line, them tab it in. • When you list a magazine or Internet date, use day, month, year format:  4 May 1990 if it's a weekly or Oct 2004 if it's a monthly. • With multiple publishers, give the one on the spine of the book. • With multiple years, give the most recent one. • With multiple locations, use the one closest to you in the USA. • Follow the punctuation below exactly. • Works cited pages are a separate page at the end of your paper.
