Detailed description:​

Relied on by generations of writers, the MLA Handbook is published by the Modern Language Association and is the only official, authorized book on MLA style. The new, ninth edition builds on the MLA’s unique approach to documenting sources using a template of core elements―facts, common to most sources, like author, title, and publication date―that allows writers to cite any type of work, from books, e-books, and journal articles in databases to song lyrics, online images, social media posts, dissertations, and more. With this focus on source evaluation as the cornerstone of citation, MLA style promotes the skills of information and digital literacy so crucial today.

The many new and updated chapters make this edition the comprehensive, go-to resource for writers of research papers, and anyone citing sources, from business writers, technical writers, and freelance writers and editors to student writers and the teachers and librarians working with them. Intended for a variety of classroom contexts―middle school, high school, and college courses in composition, communication, literature, language arts, film, media studies, digital humanities, and related fields―the ninth edition of the MLA Handbook offers
•New chapters on grammar, punctuation, capitalization, spelling, numbers, italics, abbreviations, and principles of inclusive language
•Guidelines on setting up research papers in MLA format with updated advice on headings, lists, and title pages for group project
•Revised, comprehensive, step-by-step instructions for creating a list of works cited in MLA format that are easier to learn and use than ever before

  1. Jeffrey J.

    論文を書くのに急ぎで必要でしたが、汚れがあがったので即日返品し、再度注文しました。お願いですから次はきれいな商品をお願い致します。

  2. しば

    There are several style guides including Chicago, but the MLA is still widely accepted for journal publication, not to mention undergraduate studies. The rules are tricky, but once learned make a lot of sense.

  3. Mary Jeanne Coers

    Great condition, on time

  4. Cathy S

    Exactly what I needed for university. Authentic MLA handbook 9th edition.

  5. Beth L.

    Better than described.

  6. Gregory V. Jones, Jr.

    Bought for college student. Necessary for writing. Great gift for seniors headed to college

  7. RetiredTeacher2010

    I like the print format. It has good examples of most sources. Easy to find what you need.

  8. EKIMPEID

    Good

  9. Dr. Sledge

    Great standing!

  10. Jonathan Rees

    This new version is more than twice as long as MLA 8. For that kind of added length, you’re expect to find an apology letter for creating “containers,” but don’t hold your breath. They are standing by the idea of containers which is still no less confusing (and unnecessary) to new users than it was in MLA 8.
    Probably the best thing found in 9 is the “Appendix 2: Works-Cited-List Entries by Publication Format.” Here you’ll find sample citations for various sources. This one stop shop will be very useful to new users.
    Another positive is the chapter on “Principles of Inclusive Language.” Kudos to MLA for including it, though I have not read it and cannot attest to its value.
    If you’re an academic who uses MLA often, you probably want to know what actually changed. Did they ditch the p. vs. pp. thing? The short answer is I don’t know, but it seems that the vast majority of this version is dedicated not to re-reinventing the wheel but to making the changed made in MLA 8 clearer. I could be wrong, but I don’t think so.

    This guide is perfect for guiding new and seasoned researchers. I am a seasoned researcher and I use it regularly. I also teach university courses and my students find it useful when writing research papers for me.

  12. Jonathan Rees

    The book is fine.

  13. Kiran Kumar

    Wenn Sie Lehrer sind oder studieren, ist dies ein unverzichtbarer Leitfaden um die aktuellen Anforderungen in Forschungsformaten nach MLA-Standard einzuhalten.

    Man sollte immer die neueste Auflage haben.
    Die Erklärungen sind sehr präzise und das Buch überraschenderweise deutlich länger als vorherige Version.

    Insbesondere wurde auch ein Kapitel zu „Prinzipien der inklusiven Sprache“ eingeführt, was ich besonders spannend und wichtig finde.
