Connect the Body of the Paper to the Bibliography with Citations (See Allyn & Bacon Chapter 23, starting on page 626)
In both the MLA and APA systems, the writer places a complete bibliography at the end of the paper. In the MLA system this bibliography is called "Works Cited."
1. Every source in the "Works Cited" must be mentioned in the body of the paper. (You have been asked to find 5 sources total, but some sources may be more valuable to you than others. Only list the sources that you actually use. The purpose of finding 5 sources is for you to broaden your research, but if you only end up quoting from say 3 of those sources, list only those 3 sources!)
2. Conversely, every source mentioned in the body of the paper must be listed in the "Works Cited."
3. There must be a one-to-one correspondence (tagging system) between the first word in each bibliographic entry in the "Works Cited" (usually, but not always, an author's last name) and the name used to identify the source in the body of the paper (Introductory phrase or attributive tag).
