For scholarly journals that only exist in electronic form on the Web, cite the work like you would for a print article, only conclude the entry with the following items:
If the publication does not include page numbers, use "n. pag." in place of the page numbers.
Example: |
Shah, Parilah Mohd, and Fauziah Ahmad. "A Comparative Account of the Bilingual Education Programs in Malaysia and the United States." GEMA Online Journal of Language Studies 7.2 (2007): 63-77. Web. 8 Nov. 2008. |
For articles retrieved full text from an online database, include the name of the database before "Web."
Example: |
Chan, Evans. "Postmodernism and Hong Kong Cinema." Postmodern Culture 10.3 (2000): n. pag. Project Muse. Web. 20 May 2007. |
For additional examples and explanations, see pp. 189-193 in the MLA Handbook (2009).
