What is an annotated bibliography?
Each bibliographic citation is followed by a brief paragraph that summarizes, describes, andcritically evaluates the source.
The annotation should include information such as:
• A description/summary of the central theme of the work
• A mention of the intended audience
• Comments about the work's quality and scope,and the relevance of the work as it pertains to your topic
• Compare and contrast: How does the source stack up compared with others you have researched?
• Evaluation: Will it be useful to your research? Does it help you develop your argument?
Why should you write an annotated bibliography?
When you write an annotated bibliography for each source it allows for more thoughtful and detailed critical reading instead of just collecting information. The annotated bibliography allows you to discover a thorough perspective of what is being said about your topic. As youdiscover the deeper issues within a topic you will begin to develop your own point of view on the matter.
How do you write an annotated bibliography?
West Coast University has adopted the guidelines detailed in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association 6th edition for all written assignments. These guidelines are often referred to as APA formatting.
• Use 1-inch margins and double-space the entire bibliography, including within the citation and summaries.
• Use Times New Roman in font size 12.
• Include a title page with running head and page headers.
• Use hanging indents with each citation formatted in standard APA style (with the second and any subsequent lines of the citation indented 5 spaces to the right).
• Then each annotation begins on the next line of text and should be indented as a block. Each line of the annotation is indented 3 spaces to the right of the hanging indent. All lines are double spaced, and no lines are added between the end of an annotation and the next citation in the list.
• List your citations and annotation in alphabetical order by first author's last name and separated into topic areas as shown in the sample provided.
