Ibid (Latin, short for "ibidem", "the same place") is the term used to provide an endnote or footnote citation or reference for a source that was cited in the preceding endnote or footnote.

To find the Ibid source, one has to look at the reference right before it, and so 'Ibid' serves a similar purpose to 'ditto marks' ( " ).

You should use Ibid. when your next quote belongs to the same source as the previous one

Your university should have a dissertation manual that outlines what style and deviations you need to use in formatting your document.

Ibid is most commonly used in footnotes and endnotes and these are not commonly used.

You use it when you are referencing your sources (usually in footnotes). It means "I got this quote from exactly the same place as the last one so I'm not writing it all out again!"

Generally if your using exactly the same book and page number then you're not reading widely enough. If you reference the same book twice then you quote page numbers.
