How do I format my works cited page to have a hanging indent for each individual source?
Formatting a hanging indent to each individual source is very simple. First and foremost, make sure that all the sources in the works cited page are double-spaced. Then, highlight one source at a time – start with the first source. Right-click anywhere in the highlighted source and select “Paragraph.” The Paragraph dialogue box will appear. Notice two tabs – “Indents and Spacing” and “Lines and Page Breaks.” Make sure “Indents and Spacing” is forward. Notice there are three sections – General, Indentation, and Spacing. Under Indentation, select the title “Special” from the drop box. In that drop box, select “Hanging” and then select OK. Repeat with each source.
