Hi All,

I'm afraid I might be missing something really elemental here, but 
here's my question:

Why does the NY Times Book Review enclose the titles of books in 
quotation marks within their book reviews, and also at the end of the 
text of the review itself, when they are mentioning what the author of 
the book review wrote?

We use MLA style here and are trying to teach the students how to cite 
sources and mention titles of books within a book review that we are 
requiring that they write, and I don't want them to be confused upon 
reading a review from the NYT.

Thanks for your help.
