    If a second passage from the same source is quoted close to the first and there is no intervening quotation from a different source, you can use the term “ibid.” in the second footnote or parenthetical citation. (e.g., “ibid., 114”).

    If a quotation from another source has intervened, a shortened reference may be given for the second etc mention of the same book(e.g., “Hawking, Brief History of Time, 114”).

    Info on how to set out your footnotes is at the Chicago style website:

    Need more information, thank you. Is it on the same page? Same author? (What type of literature is it such newspaper, book, encyclopedia, etc.)
