
Works Cited page notes (DELETE this portion before printing your paper):
o Alphabetize entries by first word in the entry (usually author’s last name or first
word of the title if no author is listed)
o Indent all lines of an entry after the first line
o Remember that whatever is listed first in the works cited entry is what should be
in your parenthetical citation in the paper (inside parentheses). So if the title is
the first part of the works cited entry, then you should include the title inside the
parentheses to cite that source. See
