Understanding MLA Style Guidelines

Explanation: MLA style is a set of guidelines for documenting research sources in English and other humanities disciplines. It is a parenthetical style that requires a 'Works Cited' page and a 'Bibliography' page. The 'Works Cited' page lists all the works cited in the essay, while the 'Bibliography' page lists all the works consulted, including those not cited. MLA style follows core elements such as author, title of source, title of container, version, number, publisher, publication date, and location in citing sources.
