Standards for citation exist in order to guarantee that readers of your essays will be able to find their way back to the sources you consulted during the research process. A properly formatted and complete bibliography plays an important role in helping you avoid the sin of plagiarism. Although there are may standards for citation, scholars in the humanities generally follow the MLA Style Guide. For more information consult our Citing Your Work guide.
