by your instructor. Instead, start with the information shown. Do not bold the title or use all

capital letters. Capitalise the first and last words of the title, and all principal words. If your

paper includes a subtitle, separate it from the title by a colon and space, as shown. For more

specific guidance on capitalisation, see the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers,

7th Edition (MLA 7th Edition).]

[All text – including titles, quotations, notes and list of works cited – uses double-line

spacing. Body text and note text use a half-inch first-line indent. The list of works cited uses

a half-inch hanging indent. Table titles and source text use a quarter-inch indent. To access

all of these text formats, have a look at Styles on the Home tab of the ribbon.]

[MLA format discourages extensive use of content notes. But when you need to add

notes, you can use either endnotes or footnotes. MLA 7th Edition indicates that you should

use a superscript, Arabic numeral at an appropriate place in the text for the note reference. To

begin the note text, use the same numeral, not superscript, followed by a full stop.]

[If you use endnotes, they should be on a separate page, at the end of your text and

preceding the list of works cited. If you use footnotes, consult your professor for preferred

format.]
