This whole page should be set to double-spacing with 1" margins.

After typing your title Works Cited and pressing enter do the following:

Click on Format --> Paragraph

Look for the section titled Indentation --> and the section called Special

Drop down the arrow next to Special: and select Hanging.

You will note that the number under By: is now .5"

You can now type your information. Do not press enter until you have completely entered the information for that particular work cited. If you only press enter in between your individual works cited the formatting will now be automatic.
