How to Cite OED ONLINE
How to Cite OED ONLINE in MLA style
The Dictionary text online is formed from a mixture of entries from the Oxford English Dictionary Second Edition (1989), the Additions Series volumes of 1993 and 1997, and entries not previously published in print, which are being created as part of an ongoing process to transform the text into a fully revised new edition.
The citation styles recommended for bibliographical references to all OED Online entries take account of which part of this composite text the entry belongs to, and its date of print publication or of current online draft publication. This information can be found at the top right-hand corner of free-standing entries, or above the display of appended entries.
To cite the OED Online, include the following information:
Specific entry, for example: "ethical, a."
Publication title, for example:
