The location of the citation in a paragraph differs between the two styles. For humanities footnotes or endnotes, place the raised number at the end of all the material in each paragraph. The citation is often just before the transitional sentence that ends the paragraph. In the case of a short essay that uses the humanities style, a bibliography is a waste of space. Be sure to follow the standard conventions for designating articles versus book.
Books are in italics or underlined .
When a citation is repeated immediately above, write ibid or ibid p. 00. If you cite a book or article for the second time but not directly above give the name of the author and op. The MLA Handbook or any other style manual explains the style in detail. Place the parenthetical name and page number directly after the material cited, but before the period or punctuation ending the sentence. Give the page, but not the year.
