UCSC Library - How To Write an Annotated Bibliography: "3. PURPOSE


Not to be confused with the abstract%u2014which merely gives a
summary of the main points of a work%u2014the annotated bibliography both
describes and evaluates those points. Whether an annotated bibliography
concludes an article or book%u2014or is even itself a comprehensive, book-length
listing of sources%u2014its purposes are the same:

To
illustrate the scope and quality of one's own research
To review the
literature published on a particular topic
To provide the reader/researcher
with supplementary, illustrative or alternative sources
To allow the
reader to see if a particular source was consulted
To provide examples
of the type of resources available on a given topic
To place original
research in a historical context"
