Citing the Old English Newsletter online
Some items are available in .pdf format; these files are identical to the print version of OEN and may be cited accordingly. When citing material that is available only online, please consult the most recent MLA guidelines (6th ed.) regarding bibliographic citations of works published in online scholarly periodicals (5.9.4). A typical entry for a work in an online periodical includes:
- Author’s name
- Title of the article or work, in quotation marks
- Name of the periodical underlined or in italics
- Volume number and issue number
- Year of publication
- Page numbers should be cited only if they are present; if not, they are omitted.
- Date of access and URL
The URL and date of access appear automatically at the end of each article so that you may have a record of it on any printed copy.
