Human Biology : Cite Your Research-MLA

MLA Style

The MLA Handbook is available in the CCM Library as a reference book (REF LB2369 .M52 2021) for in-house use. 

Many of our databases offer a cite link that generates an MLA citation. Caution: use the citation only as a draft, as many database-created citations contain errors in spelling, formatting, order, and more. Always refer to The MLA Handbook or the MLA Style Center website:

The Online Writing Lab at Purdue University also has a user-friendly guide to MLA style:
