A Note on Works Cited and Formatting

Everyone writes, whether it's a blog, magazine article, book, or in the academic fields.  But what is new is the use of works cited pages, even in most average blog postings in that if people write and use the works of others, a works cited page is included as a means of validation.  The works cited section plays an important role in demonstrating the strength of one's writing as well as one's ability to find and validate information, but also in the validation of one's own information.  More so, to include a works cited page is to show one's maturity in writing and writen communication.  Similarly, MLA format will be used to cite works especially external quotations.
