22. Pages. On your “Works Cited” page, although not in your paper, you’ll put “p.” in front
of a single page number and “pp.” in front of a page range (MLA 189-193).
23. URLs and DOIs. URLs are required for online sources. Do not include the http:// or
https:// at the beginning and do put a period at the end. If a DOI is available, use it
instead (note: DOIs have the http:// or https:// at the begging [MLA 194-95]).
24. Databases. If your source is from a database (ex. EBSCOhost or JSTOR), name that
database in your reference entry after the page information and give the URL for your
source (MLA 201).
