NOTE: Look at the title page and/or the copyright page in an online eBook for publication information, just as you would if you were citing a “real” printed book. (You can verify some publication information if you click the "Cite" icon under "Tools" on the right-hand side of the eBook screen, but this information does not accurately reflect correct MLA format.)
