MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers by Citations allow you to document where the information you've used in your research came from and to give other scholars proper credit for their work. If the information in your paper is not your original idea, and it is not common knowledge, you need to cite it. As you work on your research paper, keep track of all the sources you use. Citation management software, like Zotero, can help you collect and organize your citations. Keep an eye out for library workshops.
