The MLA (Modern Language Association) is a style of formatting and citing papers and essays, especially used in the liberal arts and humanities. To correctly cite a book as a source for the paper, it is essential to indicate all the information available in the correct order. For example, in order to cite a book with only one author, it is possible to indicate the information in this order:

Surname of the Author, Name of the Author. Title of the book. Publisher. Type of source (print /online). Publication year.
