An annotated bibliography is a citation list of the sources you're using for a project (all the books, websites, database articles, etc), with a paragraph about each source written below each citation. || ||

Gather and read sources for your project. As you go, keep track of the book titles, web addresses, database citations, etc. of the sources you use.

Prepare a formatted list of your sources in a citation tool like Easybib. For each citation, select the option to add an annotation.

For the annotation, write a brief analytical paragraph that summarizes the key information in the source and then analyzes the usefulness of the source to you, the quality of the information, etc
