mla.cls

class for MLA papers.

Abstract

In the United States, secondary and undergraduate students are generally expected to adhere to the format prescribed by the Modern Language Association (MLA) for typewritten essays, research papers and writings. Sadly, the tool of choice is usually Microsoft Word, even amongst those fluent with .

Though there are some templates and tools to aid in writing in the MLA format using , none fully met the expectations of the author. So voilĂ , there now exists an mla.cls proper: a simple, straightforward class for composing papers almost perfectly adherent to the MLA style guide.

Documentation and source are combined into a .dtx file, as is typical for packages. To read the documentation, run mla.dtx through :

$ pdflatex mla.dtx
$ gv mla.dtx

(If you're getting this package from CTAN, a file called mla.pdf should already be provided.)

For an example file, refer to mla-example.tex and mla-example.bib, or to the appendix in the documentation.

Once finished, move the output mla.cls to your local texmf directory.
