IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Modern Language Association updated their guidelines on April 1, 2016. We have not yet updated this section of Resources for Researchers to reflect these changes. We have ordered a copy of the new guidelines and will update as soon as possible.
What is the difference between an Internet page and an Internet site?
For the sake of clarity, we are going to use the following definitions for describing proper format for Internet references.
Internet Page: An Internet page has a single URL. For example, http://stevenlberg.info/writing/handouts/h005.html goes to an Internet page called "Three Common Types
of 'Accidental' Plagiarism."
Internet Site: An Internet site is a collection of pages. "Resources for Writers" is part of a collection of pages that make up my teaching website.
