In MLA format, how do you cite a book that has many locations of publications?

In your citation, use the city closest to you. That would be the correct format. I taught research for many years using the MLA format. Trust me.

The use of "ibid" is generally discouraged in research papers, though this is a pretty recent phenomenon, so you should go with whatever your teacher/professor/advisor suggests.\n\nAs for how to directly cite more than four lines, you should set such a quotation off from the rest of the text by indenting it one-half inch.  Also, it should be single-spaced, whereas the rest of your paper will be double-spaced.  One empty line should appear above the excerpt, between the rest of your text and the excerpt, and one line below it.  And you don't put any quotations marks around these sorts of block quotes.

You can write a bibilography which is a comprehensive list of bibliography. You should outline:\n\n* author;\n* subject or title of book;\n* country or state; \n* published in a specified period \n* mentioned in, or relevant to, a particular work.\n\nA bibliography of this type, sometimes called a reference list should normally appear at the end of any paper in scientific literature. There is also an analytical biography which subdivides books into descriptive, historical or textual.\n\nThe purpose of the bibliography defines its format. Different academic fields have their own requirements. According to the Nuts and Bolts of College Writing, the four most common format styles are those of the Modern Language Association of America (MLA), the American Psychological Association (APA), the Chicago Manual of Style, and the Council of Science Editors, formerly known as the Council of Biology Editors (CBE) and still referred to as CBE style. \n\nThe MLA style is most common in the fields of literature, foreign languages, and other humanities subjects. In research papers that conform to the MLA style, the bibliography is a list of works cited and contains information such as the author, title, and date of publication for the sources used to write the paper.

It depends on what your professor/teacher/instructor is requiring. It could be Chicago, APA, or MLA style.  Or it could be a style used in medical, legal or biological essays.\n\nSome good sites for making bibliographies\nPurdue OWL - http://owl.english.purdue.edu/\nDiane Hacker - http://www.dianahacker.com/resdoc/

you need to find out first which style your teacher prefers you use, MLA, ALA, Chicago etc.  Then I would suggest going to a place like Barnes and Noble and getting a reference book.  There is an excellent one, I forget the title its called something like pocket size reference to __?___, but it has all the styles in it.  it only costs about $10-12 new and since it has all the styles in it, you can use it for whatever classes you take in the future.  it has info on how to cite different references, books, books with more than one author, journal article etc.  as for the exact title, perhaps your teacher would know cuz i can't remember it to save my life but it's an awesome book!\n\n\n\nwoo hoo!  i found it!  here's the link  http://www.bedfordstmartins.com/book.asp?1149000255

Begin your Works Cited page on a separate page at the end of your research paper. It should have the same one-inch margins and last name, page number header as the rest of your paper. \nLabel the page Works Cited (do not underline the words Works Cited or put them in quotation marks) and center the words Works Cited at the top of the page. \nDouble space all citations, but do not skip spaces between entries. \nList page numbers of sources efficiently, when needed. If you refer to a journal article that appeared on pages 225 through 250, list the page numbers on your Works Cited page as 225-50. \nIf you're citing an article or a publication that was originally issued in print form but that you retrieved from an online database, you should provide enough information so that the reader can locate the article either in its original print form or retrieve it from the online database (if they have access).\n\nThis is a great site my English teacher gave it to me.

You need to cite the source every time you use it for an idea or a direct quotation. However, it is NOT good to cite ONE source repeatedly while not citing others to support your assertions. Reliance on one source when you do research results in a book report, not research. The idea is to find and use as many resources as you can, but do NOT rely too much on only one. I hope this helps.\n\nResearch teacher.\n\nChow!!

I think it should be like this:\n\nLeweis, C.S. (date of publication). "God in the Dock." In editor's name (Ed.), title of book (page numbers). City of publication, state of publication: publisher.\n\n\nI can't show it properly here, but remember that the second  line would be indented.  Also, to help you in the future, you might consider buying (or borrowing from the library) a book called Writer's Inc.  It's extraordinarily helpful whenever I write, and it has both MLA and APA format with lots of examples.

I'm guessing this is for a college paper, so its probably MLA format since you didn't mention which one it had to be in..;)\n\nBelow is a website that explains how to create a Works Cited page.\n\n*Edited: Sorry, was typing up an answer while you added details*\n\n*Edited again: It is the date you accessed that website.*\n:)

The MLA guidelines on documenting online sources are explained in detail in the sixth edition of the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers (2003) and in the second edition of the MLA Style Manual and Guide to Scholarly Publishing (1998). What follows here is a summary of the guidelines that cover the World Wide Web. For the complete MLA recommendations on Web sources, please see one of the books mentioned above.\n\nSources on the Web that students and scholars use in their research include scholarly projects, information databases, the texts of books, articles in periodicals, and personal sites. Entries in a works-cited list for such sources contain as many items from the list below as are relevant and available. Following this list are sample entries for some common kinds of Web sources.\n\n   1. Name of the author, editor, compiler, or translator of the source (if given), reversed for alphabetizing and, if appropriate, followed by an abbreviation, such as ed. \n\n--> more examples here http://www.mla.org/style_faq4

Last year I had a problem like this when I was writing a research paper.  I went to go ask the librarian and she told me that in text you should cite the last night followed by the first initial of the first name. \nExample: (Jones, K.)\nOn your references page, make a separate citation for each author.
