Works Cited Page

This guide outlines the correct format for creating a Works Cited page in research papers. It emphasizes the importance of placing sources in alphabetical order, using proper indentation, punctuation, and the correct spacing. Each entry must be formatted precisely as it appears on the bibliography card, with titles italicized and article names in quotation marks. Sources should only be listed if they are cited within the paper. Accurate formatting is crucial for maintaining academic integrity and providing clear credit to original authors.
