How to Prepare an Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography is a list of books, articles, and documents dedicated to a particular subject.
Items in the list include a citation as well as an evaluative and descriptive paragraph which indicates the quality and relevance of the title to the subject at hand.
Annotation vs. Abstract
The purpose of an abstract is to summarize the contents of a title. It is often found at the beginning of a scholarly article.
