See also the Cambrian College Library's Guide to MLA Citation Style:
The body of your paper may be complete, but your work is not finished until you properly acknowledge the source of your ideas and inspirations. You are required both to cite your references with the body of your work and to include, as an appendix, a complete list or bibliography of all the materials you have quoted, paraphrased and/or used as source material.
If you choose (intentionally or unintentionally) to deceive your readers by taking responsibility for words or ideas which are not your own, you may be charged with plagiarism.
