Hi Barbara,
If I'm understanding correctly what you're asking, this is what I do when
formatting a bibliography.
After the first work by a particular author, I add a long dash (or m-dash)
before each subsequent entry for that author.
I scan a lot of nonfiction and no one has told me to do it differently.

When a line is in the reference or bibliography section in the book to indicate
that the book was written by the same author as the above reference, should I
use three vertical asterisks before the other information in the reference? In
other words, what should I do with a line that appears in the reference?
Originally, I was told to use asterisks. However, when I did t his, I was told
to remove the asterisks.

hmmm. When I've come across that situation I've left the ones n the book and
put mine to replace 3 or more blank lines but I seem to remember that they
weren't necessary because of the location of the book's asterisks

I have a problem with a particular book. We're supposed to set off breaks in a
book with three stars. This books has breaks with stars and many more without.
For my own purposes I have changed those stars already in the book to bullets
just so I can find them. What should I do about this?
Thanks.
