Annotated Bibliography

An Annotated Bibliography is an optional approach to organizing your sources, often done during the Locate or Organize steps as part of your source evaluation.

We introduced this approach to summarizing on the Summary page.

How to format your Annotated Bibliography:

● Use 1-inch margins on all sides

● Include the running header you formatted for your main paper

● Center the title Annotated Bibliography at the top

● Double space the entire page (between and within entries)

● Put all entries in correct MLA citation format

● Indent the annotation paragraph below its respective citation
