TIPS FOR DOING A WORKS CITED PAGE:

• Citations should be alphabetical on the Works Cited Page
• Only include works that were actually CITED parenthetically within the body of your essay (in other words, don't include texts that you looked at as you were doing research.
• If there is no author, alphabetize by title of the work (excluding “a” “an” and “the”). 
• Citations should be double spaced (NOT 4 spaces between citations).  The second line of every entry should be indented 5 spaces.
• The Works Cited page should also be numbered, and, like the rest of your essay, should use a 12-point font, and have one-inch margins all the way around. .
