Title: An Annotated Bibliography

Ehrenreich, B. (2001). Nickel and dimed: On (not) getting by in America. New York: Henry Holt and Company.

In this book of nonfiction based on the journalist's experiential research, Ehrenreich attempts to ascertain whether it is currently possible for an individual to live on a minimum-wage in America. Taking jobs as a waitress, a maid in a cleaning service, and a Walmart sales employee, the author summarizes and reflects on her work, her relationships with fellow workers, and her financial struggles in each situation. An experienced journalist, Ehrenreich is aware of the limitations of her experiment and the ethical implications of her experiential research tactics and reflects on these issues in the text. The author is forthcoming about her methods and supplements her experiences with scholarly research on her places of employment, the economy, and the rising cost of living in America. Ehrenreich’s project is timely, descriptive, and well-researched.

Please note the spacing of the source followed by two paragraphs as described above. You will repeat this with 6-8 sources. The annotation above both summarizes and assesses the source in the citation. The first paragraph provides a brief summary of the author's project (not yours), covering the main points of the work. The second paragraph points out the project’s strengths and evaluates its methods and presentation. The annotation should not reflect on the source’s potential importance or usefulness for your own research; it is about the source only.
