An annotated bibliography is a list of citations of resources (books, journal articles, websites, etc.) followed by a brief description and evaluation. This helps you keep track of each resource, its relevance as it pertains to your study, and its credibility and quality. Your evaluation of each resource may include the purpose and scope of the study, the theories consulted, the conclusions derived, the research instruments used, etc. As you review your annotated bibliography, you can get a quick assessment of the literature you have explored on a particular subject, and this, in turn, helps you decide what to further examine.
