The Modern Language Association, the authority on research and writing, takes a fresh look at documenting sources in the eighth edition of the MLA Handbook. Works are published today in a dizzying range of formats. A book, for example, may be read in print, online, or as an e-book--or perhaps listened to in an audio version. On the Web, modes of publication are regularly invented, combined, and modified. Previous editions of the MLA Handbookprovided separate instructions for each format, and additional instructions were required for new formats. In this groundbreaking new edition of its best-selling handbook, the MLA recommends instead one universal set of guidelines, which writers can apply to any type of source.

MLA had to go and make lots of changes, so I got the book with all the details. Book arrived in good condition, and now I’m up to speed.

I love it!!!! It is very helpful in many ways like for example: if you have to write papers for high school or college it has very helpful tips and also very good examples. I don’t really know the answer to any of your questions but I think if you have any papers for high school and college I would recommend getting it for your students or if you have kids in college and high school if they have papers to do I would recommend it for your families.

If you need to decide, the answer is yes. It's easier to understand than most of the discussions in handbooks. (English comp. teacher for 20 years.) We use the Hacker in our classes, but reading the update in its original was great, and I carry it to all classes when we're doing research as it helps with all the nuances that aren't as clear in online supplements or in our handbook.

Simple and easy to understand. Helped me write proper citations for my papers!

Like some of the changes. Simple, easy to follow book should make citations in the new format understandable for students to follow.

Amy M.

This version is concise, easy to follow and extremely well thought out. I think the editors did a great job bringing citation back to basic principles and anticipating future developments in scholarly research and writing.

The changes made between the 7th and 8th editions of the MLA Handbook were helpful, especially as we consider how sources change. It took me awhile to get used to the new format, but I believe it will help students and scholars more as we move into a constantly changing information era.

Debi G.

It offers instructional paragraphs with helpful examples. I especially appreciate section 1.3.1 regarding the "Use and Accuracy of Quotations" in essay writing.

Ginny

Welcome changes, particularly the shift from formulaic Works Cited entries to thinking through the research process. My favorite beach read!

Paul

I like the changes! It makes everything simplistic and useful, which will be helpful when introducing MLA to my students.
