Annotated Bib Overview: Five Total Sources
In your annotated bibliography, you will need a total of 5 sources, which will include:
For each of your sources, you will write:
1. One paragraph (5-10 sentences) that summarizes your source.
2. A second paragraph (3-5 sentences) that explains how/why this source is useful to your research and how it develops/clarifies an understanding of Jane Eyre. NO first person.
The purpose of compiling an annotated bibliography during the research process is to help writers remember what they have discovered from each source and whether this information might be relevant to their argument. Much like a works cited page at the end of an essay, an annotated bibliography lists sources consulted according to MLA guidelines. However, in addition to this information, researchers also include an “annotation” which briefly summarizes the book or article and considers its potential usefulness. For your Pride and Prejudice annotated bibliography, you will be required to not only write a summary, but also include an analytical connection to your thesis as it pertains to Pride and Prejudice, so the annotation will actually be two paragraphs.
