ENG 100 Final Project – Annotated Bibliography & Essay Directions The Annotated Bibliography: You are probably already familiar with a bibliography—a list of sources that appears at the end of a research paper or a book, but you may not be as familiar with an annotated bibliography. Annotations are notes that a reader makes in books while they are actively reading. These notes can include highlighted and underlined items and any writing in the margins. Purpose: The purpose of an annotated bibliography is to detail and cite sources that were used in your research even if you do not include those sources in your final draft. The annotated bibliography is a record of the journey you took during your research. It is helpful to the writer who can easily refer to the annotations and pull quotes and examples to support arguments or ideas during the writing process. Information to Include: Active reading requires you to interact with the text. When creating annotations, you want to ask questions that help you learn more about the source you are working with, such as the author’s main points or arguments, the topics covered, the perspective, and even specific information about the historical period of the source, including what events could have influenced the writer. Other considerations include an evaluation or analysis of the source, whether the material was well researched, and whether it will be useful to you in your writings. Annotations should always be written in your own words. Do not copy directly from the source; however, should you wish to respond to a quote in your annotated bibliography, you can write the quote and then respond to the quote in your own words.
