Citation Generators
 
A "citation generator" will automatically create an MLA-formatted citation from information that you give it!  It's a good way to get started or to check the correctness of a citation you've already done!
 
1. EasyBib--very popular with students and teachers!
2.  Citation Machine--very simple and easy to use.
3. BibMe--has an "autofill" mode and a "manual mode"--both easy to use!

Duke University Library has a very easy to read guide to creating a works cited, with excellent examples!
