I agree, and I've checked several sources also. One "work" is singular, so
use the singular format.

Subject: Re: Works Cited question
Hi, Jacquie,
My brain says it should be "Work Cited" to be in agreement but it's NOT
addressed in the MLA Handbook. I even checked the MLA FAQ's
<http://www.mla.org/style_faq> to no avail. It's supposed to be logica...go
with "Work Cited."

To the Collective Mind:
If there is only one source used, should it be called "work cited" or
"works cited"? I can't find the answer in the MLA handbook. Thanks.
