Formatting Your Paper in MLA Style
Set up your document properly so you will be successful. MLA style requires you to do the following:
- Type your essay in Times New Roman, size 12 font
- Double space your entire essay (even the heading!)
- Do NOT quadruple space in between paragraphs. When you move on to the next paragraph, hit enter once, indent, & begin
- Indent each new paragraph 5 spaces (tab key once)
- Proper nouns (artist/author names, titles of pieces) all get capitalized properly
- Titles of books and paintings are italicized. Titles of poems "go in quotes
- Use in-text (parenthetical) citations after each example taken from a book, painting, website, etc.
- Do NOT use personal pronouns in formal writing (I, you, us, we, etc.)
- Use transitions within and between your paragraphs to show movement from one idea to the next
- Always include your works cited as the last page of a formal essay
