You need to write an annotated bibliography of four sources. All four sources should be acquired through OneSearch using this website https://umuc.edu/library/.  They should come from scholarly journals or trade journals.

You will prepare to write the annotated bibliography by completing the following steps:

• The topic of your report is Roger Federer, the tennis player. Please refer to the instructions for the final report for more information on topics to consider.
• Peruse through different sources that could inform the paper on that topic. You will want to consider many sources as you navigate the OneSearch interface.
• Select four of the sources you have found.

You will then write the annotated bibliography as follows:

• cite each article in APA format
• summarize each article in 100-150 words.
• write a one- or two-sentence evaluation at the end of the annotation explaining why this source might be helpful to you for your analytical report.
• list each reference (followed by its annotation) in alphabetical order.

Keep in mind that, when you eventually write your analytical report, you don't have to use every source you annotate for your annotated bibliography in that report. You might find that, as you find more sources and consider your topic more thoroughly, you don't use several of the sources you annotated. This outcome is not a problem. The purpose of writing the annotated bibliography is to help get you started on locating sources and allow you to begin analyzing and summarizing them.
