It depends on what the instructor asked you to do. If he wants in MLA form (which is most likely) then you need to use the parenthetical within text. But if he doesn't care (highly unlikely) then go ahead and put it in the end/footnotes, but I highly suggest documenting it in the text like in MLA.

Depending upon the system your instructor prefers, you can use anything from basic writing techniques to MLA format to who knows what?  As for simply writing the research paper, you will ALWAYS, of course, begin with the subject.  Find a subject that you have interest in.. otherwise the entire process will be a real chore for you. If you must do it, at least try and make it interesting. Then the research, of course..  don't do all your research in one area..  for instance.. don't have ALL your research done online.. do some online, some in periodicals and even some [depending upon your subject, of course] being true life examples.  For instance, if you were writing about the day to day workings of a hospital emergency room, it would be great to actually interview an ER nurse.  If you were doing a paper on firefighting, interview a firefighter..  and if you were doing a paper on research itself [one of my favorite choices], interview a research librarian.  Then, always always ALWAYS credit your sources properly on your works cited page.  This is one place where you do NOT want to guess.  It can make or break your paper many times.  Good luck.

If the work has a title, the title should be italicized, e.g. Michaelangelo's _David_.  If it does not have an actual title, but you give it one for convenience in your paper, put the erstwhile title in quotes, e.g. Smith's "Grassy Field."\n\nThere are many different "style guides" that tell how to handle the technical aspects of a research paper.  Also, professors will sometimes name a journal who's style should be followed.  It is best to ask your professor.\n\nTwo of the most commonly used style guides are the ASA and MLA style guides.  If you are going to be writing papers, it may be worthwhile to get a copy of one.  The MLA guide is probably used more widely.

With the MLA format, you put the citation after the information from the source in parantheses. If there is more than one citation in a sentence, you just have to attribute the quote to the correct author.\n\nThe sources below should provide a little more clarification as to the rules of the MLA.

The guideline is to use only one block quote for four pages.  In other words, one or two paragraphs for each four pages.  For your seven page paper, you could block quote two paragraphs.  That's from the MLA handbook, I think.  When I taught English, the rule was always that no more than 10 percent of a research paper was to be quoted.  Paraphrasing is more desirable.  Could you paraphrase the information?

That depends on the formating.  Is it MLA?  APA?
