\documentclass[mla7]{mla} \title{Sample MLA Document} \author{John Doe} \professor{Dr Suzie Que} \course{\LaTeX\ 101} \date{\today} % This will be explained later! \addbibresource{example.bib} \begin{document} \begin{paper} This is an example document using ``mla.cls''. The header is automatically printed for you when calling the ``paper'' environment, which is why we jumped straight into writing our body. \section{A section} Our professor prefers we section our paper since it's \emph{really} long: \begin{blockquote} I really hope you do this right, John. I got tired of reading that twenty-page paper with no logical breaks! Just divide it into sections already, even though the MLA style guide doesn't tell you to. It's technically not \emph{prohibited}, I guess. \cite{que2019} \end{blockquote} That's when the ``\textbackslash{}section'' commands come in handy. You can even create a subsection!\endnote{It's just like in the normal ``article'' class.} \subsection{Subsection} Notice we cited something above in the blockquote. That's where ``workscited'' comes in handy with perfect MLA format! (The ``example.bib'' file follows this whole example.) But, before that\ldots didn't we specify an endnote somewhere? \end{paper} \begin{notes} % It's also important you use the MLA template % provided with the class, lest it look wrong. \printendnotes[mla] \end{notes} \begin{workscited} % It's important to use ``heading=none'' here, since the % ``workscited'' environment already prints it out for us. % Also, notice we had to include the bibliography file % in the preamble. That's important! \printbibliography[heading=none] \end{workscited} \end{document}
