What is an annotated bibliography?

An annotated bibliography is a list of the sources you have used or will use for an assignment. Each entry in the list is accompanied by an explanation of its usefulness for your work.

Your annotated bibliography should contain the following:

• A citation for each of the works you used
• An annotation describing each work’s relationship to your research

The content of your annotations will vary according to assignment guidelines. Your instructor may require you to:

• Describe a source’s content
• Identify a source’s main argument(s) (i.e. thesis, hypothesis, research question)
• Evaluate the strengths or weakness of a source’s argument(s)
• Explain a source’s relevance to your research or argument

Please pay careful attention to your assignment requirements – not all annotated bibliographies contain the same information!
