How acceptable are self-citations?

How can I write my works cited paper with multiple citations from the same book?

• I'm wrote a mla format paper and used one book to write multiple citations. I used about three citations from one book alone and on different pages. How can I write my works cited page. Should I just make one works cited for that one author?

• Answer:

  You only need to list the book once on your works cited. In your notes you would reference each citation with the corresponding page number for each specific reference to the text.
