I am a godawful procrastinator whose sickness has prevented me from concentrating properly on my research paper that is due tomorrow, and so I will be both doomed and up all night trying to write it, even though my head really doesn't feel any better and I coughed about once every two minutes during Japanese today, which I had to go to because it's the last class before the final and I need the revision and so on.

Gigantic run-on sentences are fun.

Anyway, the point of this entry.

My copy of the MLA handbook for research papers was published in the early 1990's. It tells me nothing. HOW DOES ONE CITE AN INTERNET SOURCE IN A BIBLIOGRAPHY FOR A RESEARCH PAPER?

The other point of this entry.

Happy birthday, ladyjaida and alpheratz!

http://www.bedfordstmartins.com/online/cite5.html - if you go fairly far down on the page I think it gives info on Internet citations using MLA.

Good luck!

You can also try this site, LIU basically lays out some of the most common bibliography citation styles, including the internet.

I know one of the major manuals is available online, but I don't think it's MLA--not on their site, anyway. Might be the Chicago Manual.

Anyway, just a big English academic geek. :) Good luck!

Now that you mention it, my ghetto MLA book is too old for onling stuff too. In fact, it was published the year I got my first computer. -_-;; Now I wonder how I've always known how to do online MLA citations (and correctly too).

But since I don't know if you're doing a simple website or online databases or whatnot, I'll show you my cheat sheets. :)
