MLA format refers to the formatting and citation style developed by the Modern Language Association. It is commonly used for papers and essays in disciplines such as literature, languages, humanities, and other related fields. MLA format includes guidelines for formatting the paper, citing sources within the text and in the Works Cited page, and other specific rules for various elements such as headings, in-text citations, quotations, and the overall structure of the paper. It ensures consistency, clarity, and proper attribution of sources in academic writing.
