Citing Sources
[text-only version for
printing]
Most Rio Hondo College instructors prefer that you use the style
recommended by the Modern Language Association (MLA) when you prepare your
research papers. The MLA style is concerned with the mechanics of writing,
such as punctuation, quotation, and documenting the sources you used.
The Works Cited section appears at the end of the research paper and
should list all the works that you have mentioned in your text. For a quick
reference to the basic formats for citing your print and electronic sources,
choose one of the categories above. Consult a reference librarian for
additional help.
