: Using one source, multiple times, and footnotes I am required to use footnotes in a paper for the first time in my life, and I have run into the problem of how to properly cite it. My question

I am required to use footnotes in a paper for the first time in my life, and I have run into the problem of how to properly cite it.

My question is, if I get multiple facts from the same source, when/where do I place the footnote? I know with in-text citation you can just place one right after each fact you need to cite, but I'm not sure if this is how you use footnotes.

For example, using in-text citations I could type
blah blah blah (Smith, 2013). blah blah blah (Smith, 2013). So on and so forth. However, when using footnotes, how would I cite this?

You would use Ibid for this: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibid. If the additional quote is on a different page, you would put "Ibid," followed by the page number. If the additonal quote is on the same page, you would just put "Ibid."

Example:

[1] Huxley, Aldous, Brave New World (Chatto and Windus, 1932), 35.

[2] Ibid, 39.
