Avoid plagiarism by properly citing your sources. Redwood Day asks students to use the MLA format. 

 

For a book with one author, MLA format looks like this (pay close attention to punctuation!):

Author. Title: Subtitle. City or Town: Publisher, Year of Publication.

If you are citing books with more than one author or other resources, such as websites, magazines or newspapers, click here and use the menu on the left side to find the appropriate MLA format that you need.
