[LM_NET] GEN: Works Cited Question

[Bev Nelson <bev.nelson@SPRINGGROVE.K12.MN.US>]

When you instruct students on works cited entry - using the MLA
format - which publisher gets credit in the entry?  Is it the
publisher that is that "head" publisher, or is it the publisher that
distributes?  For example, I am not sure about the following book.
The title of the  book is Mammals by Pamela Forey and Cecelia
Fitzsimons.  The title page shows Crescent Publishers.  The
information on the verso is c. 1996 Atlantis Publications Ltd. and
then further down on the same page it states " This 1986 edition
published by Crescent  Books, distributed by Outlet Book Company,
Inc., a Random House Company, 40 Engelhardt Avenue, Avenel, New
Jersey 07001."  Does Cescent get the credit as the publisher?


Thanks for your help!
