Subject: Re: [LM_NET] SEC: Web based citation sources
I would trust anyone's MLA section. We have worked YEARS getting our
citation worksheets perfect and we still find mistakes. If you have a
teacher who wants it exact, the citation machines are not sufficient.

I have seen many people asking for web based citation help and I have
taken note of the sites mentioned.? My question is how accurate are
these sources?? We have used citation machine, but one teacher came to
us concerned about the accuracy of their APA section, which leads me to
question the MLA section.? Has any one checked this?? What was your
reaction?
