Changes to the MLA Handbook, 7th Edition

In 2009, MLA Style was given some important updates. This video summarizes the changes from the 6th edition. Note: it also presupposes some basic terminology, like "citation" and "works cited page"; it also assumes you have another resource to help you with citation basics.

This was created as a resource for students and faculty in the First-Year Composition program at the University of South Florida, but it could be useful to students and researchers anywhere.

Don't worry--I don't remove comments unless I think they're hateful (which, so far, I haven't). jnb3299 removed his comment himself, or a moderator removed it for some reason.

Yes, I did rebuke negativity from over a year ago, so don't ask. It had to be done :)

To anyone hating on this video bite your tongue! Mr. Kyle Stedman, you're the man! Thank you so much for giving us the updates. my wife and I really appreciate you taking the time to make that information so entertaining. To all those hating, remember the old adage, "If you dont have anything nice to say...shut the hell up!". Thanks again my friend :)

"You do what you have to do in order to do what you want to do?"
