Creating a Works Cited PageCreating a Works Cited Page MLA FormatMLA Format As you find your sources in the library databases, locate the provided citations. (See the powerpoint slideshow on the libguide for where to find citation information.) If you are not using a library database, you will need to cite the source using bibme.org (http://www.bibme.org). Put all your citations into one sheet in Word.
