This guide
to the research paper was originally prepared by Pat Lamb and Sara Moore
in 1988. It was revised by Ruth Faris and Kathy Nichols in1995. The 1997
revision, which was done by Pat Barras and Jane Frazer, incorporates revisions
and additions to facilitate the use of online sources. The 1999 edition
contains additional information to facilitate the use of online sources
and has been adapted for the web by Traci Blanchard. We hope this guide
will assist teachers in their presentation of the process of writing a
research paper.
Based on the recommendations of the Modern Language Association in the Handbook for Writers of Research Papers, Fourth Edition, 1995, this guide is intended as a supplemental reference. While many style manuals are available, MLA is used widely in liberal arts and humanities programs of colleges and universities. Teachers are encouraged to consult the MLA Handbook for more complete information.
