Using sources multiple times in a paper in different places--how to cite

+1
−0

I'm writing a paper for National History Day in my Social Studies class and am using MLA formatting. It occurred to me that I had a lot of differing information from some sources, such as a historical novel. How would I cite it if I put information from the same source into the paper in varying parts? Should I, instead, figure out a way to put it all together at once per source?
