The information on these pages is taken directly from The MLA Handbook for Writers of Research

Papers, Sixth Edition. It is the most current information available to guide you through this often

confusing process. Your teachers cannot emphasize enough the importanceof citing your sources

and setting up your papers in the correct format. If you learn how to do this now, your college years will

be a much easier. Remember M[odern] L[anguage] A[ssociation] is just one way to cite sources but it

is the only citation guide used at FTHS. If you need further assistance, each teacher on campus has a

copy of the MLA Guide. Your English teachers can help you during FIRE if you are still confused after

consulting the book. Be careful with referencing other sites and using citation machines as many of

these sites contain errors or outdated information. Any new information will be updated as it is

released from MLA. The three main categories of MLA are:

  1. MLA Formatting
  2. MLA In Text Citations
  3. MLA Works Cited
