[ISLMA-Share] Online citations?

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

In April 2016, Modern Language Association (MLA) published their 8th
edition.  Version 8 is simplified, but the changes are significant.  When I
checked my databases, none of the generated citations were correct. I would
assume that any version of Microsoft Word might be outdated as well for the
MLA 8 version.

Check with the English department or whoever decides what style manual to
use in your building or per class.

Here is a quick guide link of the changes from MLA: https://style.mla.org/
