changing MLA from author to numeric
I have a professor who wants his students to use MLA but he wants the bibliography to be in numerical order. And he wants the in-text citations to be a superscript number. I have suggested alternative styles that come close, but he really wants a modified MLA.
I have tried using the Visual CSL Editor, but I don't know what I'm doing. Can anyone help me with this?
