You use a block quote when your quote from the source is longer than 4 typed lines. Use block quotes sparingly. Lead into the block quote with an attributive tag ending with a colon. Author writes: The entire block quote should be indented 1 in from the left margin. You can achieve this by selecting the lines in the quote with your cursor and using the toolbox to push the Indent button twice. You do not put quotation marks around a block quote because the indentation already shows that the lines are a quotation. You put the page number at the very end of the block quote, outside of the period rather than inside the period like a regular quote. (138) The next line after a block quotation should not be indented, because you are not starting a new paragraph, but returning to the same paragraph in order to comment on the quote you just incorporated. The paragraph should continue as normal, but remember that the longer the quote you incorporate the more analysis and commentary you need to provide.

YourLastName 3 Works Cited To format Follow MLA guidelines found on the Purdue OWL resource found on VeraCross. If you paste your citations from Noodlebib, be sure to change the text back to double-spacing because the formatting is sometimes lost. Also, remember that the second line is indented as you see in this paragraph. This is called a hanging indent. It allows the authors name to stand out in the list works cited. Under the Format tab in Microsoft Word, use the Paragraph option to choose Hanging from the Indentation Special toggle menu.
