Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography is a list of sources (a bibliography) that are annotated (have notes). (And that is what is known as circular reasoning, which is extraordinarily unhelpful). But don’t worry, I’ll explain it better by saying this: Create your Works Cited as normal. Take a break. You deserve it, because a Works Cited can be a right pain in the butt. Now, go back to your Works Cited, and at the end of each entry write one or two short sentences summarizing the article and why you’re citing it.
This is a student sample of an Annotated Bibliography for this paper.
An annotated bibliography usually precedes a large paper. The professor will usually ask for an annotated bibliography a few weeks before the paper is due. This is especially true in a large paper, 15+ pages, but some instructors, particularly in social sciences or history, may ask for them for shorter assignments. Like I said in the “Read This First,” I wouldn’t normally require one, but this is good practice for the future.
The assignment is to create your Annotated Bibliography and submit it.
