Perguntas frequentes

What if I'm citing a conference paper that was published in the conference proceedings?

If it's published in proceedings, cite as a book chapter with the conference as the publisher.

Do I need to include the conference organizer or institute?

Only if it's part of the official conference name. Otherwise, location is sufficient.

How specific should the location be?

Include at least the city and country/state. Hotel or venue name is not necessary in MLA format.
