The type of source that seems to give students the most trouble is the electronic source. There are several
types--always be sure you know what TYPE of source you are using before trying to decide how to cite it.
For the FullText
databases (such as EBSCOHost), follow the standard MLA format for that type of source, then add the information about where
you found the article to the end of the citation.
For Online sources(web or internet addresses), you will need to
indicate whether the source ORIGINATED in a traditional text that was reproduced online (for example, from the _Time Magazine_
web page), or whether it ORIGINATED online.
There are samples of works cited at the link below, or see your textbook.
