This guide shows examples of citation information for articles and documents retrieved from the InfoTrac Web and GaleNet databases. The examples follow the recommendations set forth by the sixth edition of the <i>MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers</i>*. </p> <p>The citation elements to be included for work from a subscription service are in the following order: </p><ul> <li>Author </li><li>Article Title </li><li>Publication Name </li><li>Publication Date </li><li>Page Number/Range </li><li>Database Name </li><li>Service Name </li><li>Name of the library where service was accessed </li><li>Name of the town/city where service was accessed </li><li>Date of Access </li><li>URL of the service </li></ul> <p></p> <h5><a name="examples">Examples</a></h5> <p><b>InfoTrac Web </b></p> <p>1.

There are two ways to identify your library's unique URL: </p><ol> <li>When you first access InfoTrac Web, on the page with the Proceed button. That page will have the URL with the library's unique address. &lt;http://infotrac.galegroup.com/itweb/________________&gt;. The underlined portion represents the portion of the address that is unique to your library. Note: Your library may configure the setup to bypass this screen. </li><li>Get the information from an InfoMark -- At the end of the InfoMark, the characters (usually 7-10) after the equal sign are your library's location id. </li></ol> <p><br></p> <p><b><a name="can">Can I use an InfoMark?</a></b> <br>Because an InfoMark URL can be several lines long, we do not recommend using InfoMarks in bibliographies. Research papers are typically submitted in paper/hardcopy, and accessing an InfoMarked reference would require that it be hand-keyed. If you are submitting your paper electronically, via e-mail or disk, then InfoMarks may be an option. Please discuss this with your instructor. </p> <p class="small">*Gibaldi, Joseph. <i>MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers</i>, Sixth Edition.
