When writing a paper, you may find that you need to quote or paraphrase from a book. MLA 9 has specific guidelines for quoting and citing from books, which you can follow if you are using MLA format for your paper.

Once you know what information you need, you can look up the book in MLA’s online database. Enter the author’s last name, a comma, and the first name. Under “Type,” select “Book.” Select the correct edition of the book from the list that appears. Click on the title of the book to bring up the record.
In the “Citation” box at the top of the record, click on “MLA 8.” A citation for the book will appear in MLA format. Copy and paste this into your paper.
