MLA Style Updated




Although The Chicago Manual of Style Online is a standard online resource the release of MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers seventh edition attracted attention. Style: MLA: Updated. The Modern Language Association no longer recognizes print as the default medium and states that the seventh edition includes guidelines for “citing works published on the Web and new recommendations for citing several kinds of works, such as digital files and graphic narratives.” Undergraduates will welcome the accompanying Web site to the seventh edition. MLA Style Manual and Guide to Scholarly Publishing, Third Edition (2008) (O’Neill Stacks PN147 .G444 2008 ) is the standard guide for graduate students, scholars, and professional writers.
