An annotated bibliography provides:
- an alphabetical list of references (by author's last name) presenting a brief summary of the main arguments or ideas of each resource
- a critique or evaluation of the resource's usefulness, reliability, objectivity or bias
- a reflection on how the resource fits into your research
Each item on the annotated bibliography should contain:
- 1 - 2 paragraph summary, evaluation and reflection

- Research from at least 3 different publication types (e.g. journal article, conference paper, book chapter, standard, patent, thesis)
- Annotations are original work, concise and written clearly
