in-text citation several works by same author MLA style for Mac

Hi,

I'm using the Word for Mac version 12.2.8. Everything works fine except when I want to add a citation (MLA style) from an author with several books/articles from my library. It will only give me the name and page number (if I add one), but not the year or a short title, so that it's clear to which work I'm referring to. I can change it manually every time I add a citation, but I'm afraid I'll forget sooner or later. Is there an automatic way to indicate multiple works of one author in a text?

Thanks,

H.
  • I'll revesit MLA with Zotero 2.1 eventually, this might be possible right now, but the current style doesn't do it.
  • I double checked and this should work correctly by giving you the short title (and it does for me).
    First, make sure this is in fact not working.
    Then, let us know your Zotero version number
    Then, try the same citations out in MLA style here
    chrome://zotero/content/tools/csledit.xul

    Finally, copy the whole in-text citation as well as bibliography entries of items that fail to disambiguate here.
