OKAY, I need to find this stuff in this article:

BE SURE THAT THE AUTHOR’S NAME, IF ANY, THE TITLE OF THE ARTICLE, THE NAME OF THE PUBLICATION, AND THE PUBLICATION INFORMATION INCLUDING THE DATABASE AND SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE (for example, Newsfile Collection with Periodicals - database from Newsbank – subscription service) IS INCLUDED IN WHAT YOU UPLOAD SINCE YOU WILL NEED THIS FOR MLA DOCUMENTATION.



Well, I can find everything but what does she mean by DATABASE and SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE??

This is the link to the article. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this!!

Here is an example of what she is looking for:

If you pulled your information from a WEBSITE: include the title of the web page, the name of the entire web site, the organization that posted it (this may be the same as the name of the website). Also include the full date the page was created or last updated (day, month, year if available) and the date you looked at it.

EXAMPLE:
Lynch, Tim. "DSN Trials and Tribble-ations Review." Psi Phi: Bradley's Science Fiction Club. 1996. Bradley University. 8 Oct. 1997
.
(The http should immediately follow the date, but would not fit in the space allowed by Yahoo! Answers)

For information pulled from Internet Magazine Articles: Include:
The name of the database (underlined) and the company that created it and its home webpage; The full date of the article (day, month, year if available) and the date you looked at it; If you are citing a journal instead of a magazine, include the volume (and issue number) and date as shown under the Journal Style above.
The library or other organization (and its location) that provided you with access to the database.
As for page numbers, different databases will provide different information. Include the range of pages (ex. 25-28.); or the starting page followed by a hyphen, a blank space, and a period (ex. 64- .); or the total number of pages or paragraphs (ex. 12 pp. or 33 pars.). If no page information is given, then leave it out.

EXAMPLE:
Andreadis, Athena. "The Enterprise Finds Twin Earths Everywhere It Goes, But Future Colonizers of Distant Planets Won't Be So Lucky." Astronomy Jan. 1999: 64- . Academic Universe. Lexis-Nexis. B. Davis Schwartz Memorial Lib., Brookville, NY. 7 Feb. 1999 .

Good luck!

The way it reads it seems there is no database or subscription service, that would only count if you use JSTOR, project MUSE, EAI or any other services where you can search for articles from multiple papers.

e.g. some guy, "Some Article", Some Paper, Date, Found in Proquest 5000 - Periodicals Lookup.

Otherwise you just put the URL after the date, then the date you first viewed it, then the date you last viewed it.

i suppose you could put google or something. Or contact the person who assigned it and ask them for clarification.
