Summarize the following:
Write the article author’s last name followed by a comma, and then add the first name followed by a period.  For example: Jones, Sally. If there are multiple authors, list them alphabetically by last name following each with a period. For example: Jones, Sally. Yates, Richard. Use an open quotation, the title of the article, a period, and then a closed quotation to format the article title. The title is typically in title case, as it appears in the magazine. For example: Jones, Sally. “Why Cats Are Great.” Italicize the name of the magazine or journal that your article appeared in. Follow that with a comma. For example: Jones, Sally. “Why Cats Are Great.” Time, Format the date as the day of the month, the month abbreviated to 3 letters followed by a period, and then the year, followed by a comma. For example: Jones, Sally. “Why Cats Are Great.” Time, 15 Nov. 1995, Format the page numbers by writing pp followed by a period, and then write the page range also followed by a period.  For example: Jones, Sally. “Why Cats Are Great.” Time, 15 Nov. 1995, pp. 20-22. If you accessed this article in print, this is your full MLA magazine article citation! Cite a quote from the article in your essay with an in-text citation. Write the citation as an open parenthesis, the author’s last name, the page number, and then a closed parenthesis followed by a period. Place the in-text citation at the end of the line being quoted. For example: I agree that “cats are the world’s smartest animals” (Jones 15). If you introduce the quote with the author’s name, simply put the page number in parentheses at the line’s end. For example: I agree with Jones that “cats are the world’s smartest animals” (15).
