Did MLA Format Change?

<p>On citationmachine.net it says “MLA (New 3rd Edition)” and their method differs from all of the print sources I have.</p>

<p>Example: For books they’re italicizing titles instead of underlining them and including the medium (print, digital, audio etc.).</p>

<p>Yeah, it changed. Those are pretty much the only changes though (italicizing titles, including the medium). Also, you don’t include the URL for websites anymore.</p>

<p>Ya, it annoys me, but it is changed. They obviously didn’t consult with me on the matter. :D</p>

<p>It changes to be more like Chicago Style. I recommend you abandon MLA and learn how to use Chicago. Chicago is used by the majority of social sciences and humanities. MLA is mostly used by English departments. Learning how to use MLA going to come back and haunt you if you study social sciences in college.</p>

<p>Italicize or underline is just a stylistic difference. You can use both with no penalty. Unless, of course, one of your teachers is extremely prejudiced to one of them.</p>

<p>Go to this site to learn Chicago:

<p>Chicago is the way to go. I use it for history, geography and most of my IB essays including my extended essay; only my English teacher requires MLA and it’s extremely annoying.</p>
