Annotated Bibliography

How do I write an annotated bibliography?

1. Cite the book, article, or document normally using the appropriate style. Since you will find most of your sources online, use the citation generator provided by the databases and encyclopedias. 

2. Write a short paragraph (3 – 4 sentences) that summarizes the central theme and scope of the book or article. It is recommended that you include one or more sentences that (a) evaluate the authority or background of the author, (b) comment on the intended audience, (c) compare or contrast this work with another you have cited, or (d) explain the unique value that this source adds to your topic.
