MLA Referencing
When a source has no known author, use a shortened title of the work
instead of an author name. Place the title in quotation marks if it's a
short work, or italicize or underline it if it's a longer work.
Your in-text citation will correspond with an entry in your Works Cited
page, which, for the Burke citation above, will look something like
this:
Multiple Citations
When you have more than one reference you'd like to recognize from
one sentence of your own writing, you can include multiple writers
using a semi-colon between the two author references like.. (Burke 3;
Dewey 21) as OWL uses as an example.
Mutiple Books by Same Author
If in your writing, you have more than one book that is written by the
same author, your intext citations should be a bit different to
differentiate which sort the reference is from. An example of this would
be (Huxley, Brave New World Revisited 23) .

According to OWL,
"Common sense and ethics should determine your need for
documenting
sources. You do not need to give sources for familiar proverbs, well-
known
quotations or common knowledge. Remember, this is a rhetorical
choice,
based on audience. If you're writing for an expert audience of a
scholarly
journal, they'll have different expectations of what constitutes common
knowledge." (OWL).
