This document provides guidelines for citing internet sources in MLA format. It explains that a citation for a web site should include the author(s) name, title of the work, name of the website, date accessed, and URL. If no date of publication is available, use "n.d." instead of a date. For eBooks without page, publisher or place of publication information, use "N.pag.", "n.p.", or "N.p." respectively. Additional questions can be directed to librarians or by consulting the MLA handbook.
