Primarily used in research papers related to the liberal arts and humanities fields, the Modern Language Association (MLA) citation style provides guidelines for writers to create a system of in-text citations that link to a final works cited page. This process provides the reader with further informational resources and protects the writer from accusations of plagiarism. Creating a works cited page in the MLA format online is made possible through websites like EasyBib, Citation Machine and BibMe, which automatically format citations and create a works cited page that the user can simply download to their preferred word processor.
