​Citation rules followed by the Humanities (English, Foreign Languages, and Literature) 
There are two parts to the MLA citation process: the in-text citation and the Works Cited. 
The in-text citation is a brief reference to the full citation found in the Works Cited. The in-text citation is found right after the borrowed information.  Example: (Author's Surname #)  where # is page number or (Smith 31).
