With summer break drawing to a close, and following on from our MLA 9 announcement, we're happy to announce that MLA 9 is live on MyBib (and just in time for the new academic year!)

It's that time again--MLA 9th Edition is just around the corner! The handbook is yet to be released, but we have a date: April 22 according to the MLA website, and we will be the first in line when it drops.

Group members are throwing sources and updates at you from every direction, and it falls on your shoulders to make sure they're all cited -- and correctly too. That's a pressure you could do without. We have the solution! We've added a way for your group members to securely access one of your bibliographies from their own computer or device so they can make changes without you.
