In MLA format, the correct option regarding the formatting of a Works Cited entry is to **indent the second line five spaces** (this is commonly referred to as a hanging indent). This means that the first line of the citation is flush left, and any subsequent lines are indented by half an inch. The publisher information itself is not specifically indented but follows this general indenting rule.
