An encyclopedia (also spelled encyclopaedia or encyclopædia) is a comprehensive written compendium that holds information from either all branches of knowledge or a particular branch of knowledge. Encyclopedias are divided into articles with one article on each subject covered. The articles on subjects in an encyclopedia are usually accessed alphabetically by article name and can be contained in one volume or many volumes, depending on the amount of material included.

“ Indeed, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to collect knowledge disseminated around the globe; to set forth its general system to the men with whom we live, and transmit it to those who will come after us, so that the work of preceding centuries will not become useless to the centuries to come; and so that our offspring, becoming better instructed, will at the same time become more virtuous and happy, and that we should not die without having rendered a service to the human race in the future years to come. ” Diderot

A. Work from this example: Here is an MLA Encyclopedia entry formatted for both a Works Cited Page and the in-text parenthetical corresponding entry. Work Cited: "Magna Carta." The New Encyclopedia Britannica. 15th ed. 1998. Parenthetical: ("Magna Carta" 521)

How do you cite a Encyclopedia source?
Q. I went on citationmaker and i filled everything out but I got confused because it didn't ask for Where it was published or what company? Isn't it suppose to have that? Halsey, William. "Himmler Heinrich."Collier's Encyclopedia. 12th ed. 1991. is this citation correct?

A. Try filling out as much information as you can on easybibs.com and they'll help you formulate it. They usually ask a lot here, but you can leave spaces blank. Also, look up the OWL at Purdue University. They have great information for citing MLA format.
