You will use MLA format for your in-text citations, Works Cited and any other evidence you use as part of your paper.<\/p>\n

Your eight <\/b>source will be your anthology, White Teeth or the Barbara Ehrenreich article that we used for our midterm- your primary source in other words. At least three<\/b>of these should be from a book<\/b> or eBook related to your topic which you will access from the library as a hard copy book; three<\/b>more should be from a scholarly journal or article which you may access online from the PCC library online<\/b>; one<\/b>more could be from a podcast, a weblog, an online video clip, radio or television program, lecture or public address, map or chart, cartoon, work of art, sound recording, published interview, government document, or personal interview.

You must follow MLA format for any long or block quotes you may use as well as all of your other quotes. You should not use more than two <\/b>block quotes in your paper. See page 515 of Writer\u2019s Reference for a directory to in-text citation models and for block quotes——-<\/p>\n
*** You may use two<\/b> block quotes in your paper. These could be from your primary source or an article, book or other. However, the quote should not be longer than 6 typed lines in MLA<\/b> format<\/b>. If you choose NOT<\/b> to have two block quotes, you may use those 12 lines as 6 more 2-line quotes.<\/p>\n
