Lissi here is what I found:
   
  Ibid (Latin, short for "ibidem", "the same place", abbreviated "Id.") 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. It is similar in meaning 
to idem (meaning something that has been mentioned previously; the same[1]), 
abbreviated "Id.," which is commonly used in legal citation.
  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 (").
  Also means: This word/phrase/concept also defined in this document.
