Annotated Bibliography

Remember that, on December 2, your annotated bibliography is due.

What is an annotated bibliography?
It's a list of the sources (books, journals, websites, periodicals, interviews, surveys, etc.) that you have consulted in your research, bibliographical information for each (i.e., author, title, publisher, etc.), and a summary and/or evaluation of each source. Depending on your project, your annotations may do one or more of the following:
- Summarize the source.
- Assess the usefulness and reliability of the source.
- Reflect on how the source fits into your research.

Your annotated bibliography should be in MLA form. (For examples, see http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/614/02/).

Work on your annotated bibliography as you go!
This is not a project to be done at the last minute. You should be working on your annotated bibliography each week as you explore sources. Your annotations should be included as part of your weekly seminar preparation sheets. Then, at the end of the semester, it's just a matter of tidying up and compiling what you've already done.
