What is a Works Cited page?

When completing a research paper, the Works Cited page is always the last page of the paper. It includes a citation for each work that was cited (quoted, paraphrased, or summarized) in the paper. It tells the reader of the paper where the writer's information came from. The reader can then go to those references for further information.

Only sources that were actually used should be included in the Works Cited.
