How do I cite email and other forms of personal communication in MLA Style?
Answer
MLA includes email and social media messages in the Works Cited page. They recommend citing messages as follows:
Sender Last Name, Sender First Name. “Title of the message.” Received by Your Name, Day Mon. Year.
Fox, Jimmy. “Found the best bagels on campus.” Received by Sabrina Shark, 26 Aug. 2024.
In-text citation: (Fox).
