Annotated Bibliography

An Annotated Bibliography simply means “Note about a book” but can relate to notes on any type of sources:

  • Annotated Bibliography is a “database” of information
  • It should be one of the first steps when undertaking research
  • See it as a “diary” recording your reactions to the information you have discovered.
  • It speeds up your research process – as you will already have gathered organised and evaluated your sources.
  • Each item is 150 words excluding the Harvard reference.
