Bibliographies are sometimes called “references” or “works cited” depending on the style format you are using. A bibliography usually just includes the bibliographic information (i.e., the author, title, publisher, etc.). An annotation is a summary and/or evaluation. Therefore, an annotated bibliography includes a summary and/or evaluation of each of the sources. 1. What is the article about? As if writing to a classmate, write one broad statement telling what the article is about. Summarize: Some annotations merely summarize the source. If someone asked what this article/book is about, what would you say? The length of your annotations will determine how detailed your summary is. 2. What are the three main points? Briefly list the three main points&/or key words of the article in the order that they appear. What topics are covered? Assess: After summarizing a source, it may be helpful to evaluate it. Is it a useful source? How does it compare with other sources in your bibliography? Is the information reliable? Is this source biased or objective? What is the goal of this source? 3. What is the author’s conclusion? Reflect: Once you’ve summarized and assessed a source, you need to ask how it fits into your research. Was this source helpful to you? How does it help you shape your argument? How can you use this source in your research project? Has it changed how you think about your topic?
