Block Day, Part II: Works Cited

Works Cited - Below we have example entries for your works cited. If you copy and paste them, you will likely have to edit the spacing to make it look right on your actual Works Cited. If, say, you used a different Bible edition (or it has a different year of publication) just adjust the entry accordingly. The information is generally per Pudue's OWL site, which is an excellent free source for your grammar needs. We recommend bookmarking the OWL site (or making it an app). Another way to make your entry is by using the Works Cited Page (generator). This may be very helpful for future research papers in other classes.

Below are examples for you to use in your works cited =):

(Although it may not show up here, the entries on a Works Cited page should look like inverted paragraphs: the first line has no indent, but each line beneath is indented 1/2 an inch. Please put all sources in alphabetical order.)

The Holy Bible

1. You italicize versions but not books of the Bible in your citations. I had made a mistake in an earlier post. It is correct on this post. So, we have 2 Samuel and the Bible but The English Standard Version or The King James Version or The New International Version of the Bible.
2. Since the Bible is a major religious text, we do not list it by author but by title. 2 Samuel and the Psalms do not need to be listed on the works cited since any educated reader will know that they are in the Bible.
