Cross-referencing: If you cite more than one essay from the same edited collection, you should cross-reference within your works cited list in order to avoid writing out the publishing information for each separate essay. To do so, include a separate entry for the entire collection listed by the editor's name. For individual essays from that collection, simply list the author's name, the title of the essay, the editor's last name, and the page numbers. For example:
Asante, Molefi Kete. "What is Afrocentrism?" Atwan and Roberts 11-17.
Atwan, Robert, and Jon Roberts, eds. Left, Right, and Center: Voices
from Across the Political Spectrum. Boston: Bedford, 1996. Print.
