BUS-7100 v1: Scholarly Literature Review (6760019724)

Conducting an Annotated Bibliography

This week, you will read, research, and learn what an annotated bibliography is and how

to write one. Basically, an annotated bibliography is an ongoing document of summaries

for your articles, books, websites, and other content that you have found on a particular

topic. These summaries can help you to organize the content you may use in the literature

review.

There is an accepted format for an annotated bibliography. You will see this through your

own research. The title, author, publisher, and APA citing of the source is the heading for

this article. Center this entire heading. Then, a few paragraphs are written to summarize

what you learned about the article or topic.

Additional information focuses on why the article was written, or what is the point of the

content. Does the content cover additional topics? Then, you will give your opinion of the

article or content by critiquing it. For example, what points do you agree with and what

objections do you see? Include other writings that may be similar and how you observed

this parallel of the topic by this author. Finally, provide your point of view on the content

and why.

Typically, each bibliography is one page or less. It can also be only a paragraph depending

on what the content tells you. It is organized to show your research on a topic in a

condensed format. There are various types of annotated bibliographies, depending on the

purpose of the task. This type of annotated bibliography is known as an informative

bibliography.

Be sure to review this week's resources carefully. You are expected to apply the

information from these resources when you prepare your assignments.

This week, you will research articles, summarize and critique articles or books, and then

write an annotated bibliography of seven sources. Using your knowledge from this week's

reading and research, develop a well-formatted summary of each author's work. Some

sources may be longer than others. A paragraph is sufficient as long as you have covered

the content. Usually, two or three paragraphs are needed. However, this is a summary

that can be quickly scanned to understand the points of the content.
