MLA Format


Question Posted Saturday July 28 2007, 4:22 pm

how do you cite a quote from a book when writing a paper? in MLA format? i think its something like "quote" (authors' name, page number). but i'm not sure. thanks.

oh. and also. when writing a paper, you aren't supposed to use to words, i, me, in my opinion..right? for summer reading, we have to write the summary of a book, then say whether we liked it or not. i wouldn't be able to use those words in this, right? it'd have to be like "this book was good." , instead of "i think this book was good."
thanks:)

^you should use that to make citations, it makes it sooo much easier you just type in book info and it makes you your citation

you should use words such as i, me...in your summery, but when stating your opinion of the book you are allowed to, since your talking to the person reading about what you thought of the book.

good luck :)
