WHAT IS AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY? An annotated bibliography is a list of citations for books, articles, and documents. Each citation is followed by a brief (4-5 sentences) descriptive and evaluative paragraph, the annotation. The purpose of the annotation is to inform the reader of the relevance, accuracy, and quality of the sources cited. Annotations are descriptive and critical; they expose the author's point of view, clarity and appropriateness of expression, and authority.

THE PROCESS Creating an annotated bibliography calls for the application of a variety of intellectual skills: concise exposition, succinct analysis, and informed library research. 1) First, locate and record citations to books, periodicals, and documents that may contain useful information and ideas on your topic. 2) Briefly examine and review the actual items. Then choose those works that provide a variety of perspectives on your topic.

The Process Continued 3) Cite the book, article, or document using the appropriate style. 4) Write a concise annotation that summarizes the central theme and scope of the book or article. Include one or more sentences that (a) evaluate the authority or background of the author, (b) comment on the intended audience, (c) compare or contrast this work with another you have cited, or (d) explain how this work illuminates your bibliography topic.

Questions to Consider ??? What are the author's credentials--institutional affiliation? Have you seen the author's name cited in other sources or bibliographies? (respected authors are cited frequently by other scholars) When was the source published? Is the source current or out-of-date for your topic? Is this a first edition? If the source is published by a university press, it is likely to be scholarly Is this a popular magazine or scholarly journal? Is the publication aimed at a specialized or a general audience?

More Questions… Is there a bibliography? Is the information covered fact, opinion, or propaganda? Does the information appear to be valid and well-researched, or is it questionable and unsupported by evidence? Are the ideas and arguments advanced more or less in line with other works you have read on the same topic? Does the source extensively or marginally cover your topic? Is the material primary or secondary in nature? Locate critical reviews in a reviewing source, such as Book Review Index, Book Review Digest, OR Periodical Abstracts

What an annotation should include: Complete bibliographic information. Some or all of the following: – Information to explain the authority and/or qualifications of the author. For example: Dr. William Smith, a history professor at XYZ University, based his book on twenty years of research. – Scope and main purpose of the work. – Any biases that you detect. – Intended audience and level of reading difficulty. – The relationship, if any, to other works in the area of study. – A summary comment, e.g., "A popular account directed at educated adults." The annotation should be about 4-5 sentences.

Book Example: Goulart, R. (1989). The Great Comic Book Artists, Volume 2. New York: St Martin's Press. The alphabetically arranged entries include one page each for the artist biography and black-and-white reprinted art. The subjective choices for inclusion reflect a pronounced American, corporate bias. This slant and the blurry comic-book reproductions render the title a cut below Goulart's usual high standards.

Another Example… Larkin, C. (Ed.). (1992). The Guinness Encyclopedia of Popular Music. London: Guinness. Very comprehensive reference book of 3,296 pages (more than 10,000 entries) encompassing all styles of popular music, including jazz. Primarily biographical, but does contain record label histories.
