MLA/APA Drop-In Clinics for Students at Library

The Library is offering drop-in sessions for students on both MLA and APA starting next week and going through to the last week of classes.

These sessions are designed to provide one-on-one assistance to students who are in the process of compiling their Works Cited or Reference Lists (these are not going to be formal classes).

All sessions will be held in the Library's Computer Lab, E101-B:

● Tuesday, November 23rd 10:30-12:30PM
● Wednesday, December 1st 11:30-1:30PM
● Thursday, December 2nd 3:00-5:00PM
● Tuesday, December 7th 4:00-6:00PM

Students can drop in ANYTIME during the two hour sessions to get help.

If students cannot attend one of these sessions, they can always get assistance at the Library's Reference Desk, anytime the library is open.

When You Get to Class: MLA Formatting

You should have already learned a lot about MLA formatting in your English 101 course. One great website to reference for MLA formatting is the Purdue OWL (Online Writing Lab).

Check out the information on this page of the website, from the beginning through the sample first page. Compare and contrast it with the first page of your rough draft. Does your first page look like theirs? Why or why not?

Note also the links on the side of the page for formatting your "Works Cited" page. We will be using these later in class.
