What is MLA-style parenthetical reference?

Creating and inserting

MLA Parenthetical References in your essay is the second task

of citing.

A parenthetical reference is a reference within the body of your paper to one of the sources listed in your Works Cited list. It indicates to your reader exactly what you derived from the source, and specifically where they can find it. You need to write a parenthetical, or "in-text" reference, whether you quote the material directly from the source, paraphrase it in your own words, or refer to an idea from the material.

• What typically goes in an MLA-style parenthetical reference?

For printed material, you normally only need to include the author(s) (or title if there is no author) and page number(s) in your reference.

For Internet sources, there are generally no page numbers for you to include

• Placement

The parentheses are usually placed at the end of a sentence, between the last word and the period. If you are quoting material directly, the parentheses should go between the closing quotation mark and the period.

...the end of your sentence (Tracy).
