On April 17, 2009, Kari Ridge sent an email to ask Davis Hamletter, an expert on nuclear power plants, about methods for storing nuclear fuel. Kari received a reply the same day. how do i make this a work entry for a work cited list

When citing an e-mail, this is the format we should use in the works-cited page:

Last name, First Name. "Title/Subject of the E-mail." Received by recipient, day month, year.

1. In the event that we are making a section for a works-refered to list about the principal email that was sent by Kari, it would be this way:

Ridge, Kari. "Methods for Storing Nuclear Fuel." Received by Davis Hamletter, 17 April, 2009.

Note: the subject of the e-mail (its title, so to speak) was not mentioned in the information provided. But, since we know the e-mail is about "methods for storing nuclear fuel", I used that as the title.

2. Now, if we are creating an entry for the reply sent to Kari, it would be like this:

Hamletter, Davis. "Re: Methods for Storing Nuclear Fuel." Received by Kari Ridge, 17 April, 2009.
