Explanation:

Let’s take a closer look at what the bibliography is.

According to Cambridge English Dictionary, a bibliography is the organized listing of sources used in the work preparation or cited in the text. Your professor may ask you to write an annotated bibliography as an assignment or include it in a research paper.

You may ask:

What is the annotated bibWell, an annotated bibliography contains a summary of the source and evaluation of its relevance, as well as a bibliographic data. In other words, you have to write a short paragraph containing the description and argument of the cited source.

There are three simple general rules for writing a bibliography:

List sources in alphabetical order.

Sources that don’t have authors should be alphabetized by title.

The book or magazine title is always underlined in a bibliography.

2.    Five Tips for Writing a Bibliography

So, now you know what a bibliography is, and the next question is: how to write a biography? We assure you: there is nothing complicated. Follow these seven steps:

2.1  Select the Sources

First and foremost you have to do when writing any paper is to find the proper sources for your research assignment. When selecting the sources, you should consider the following questions:

What is the primary purpose of my research? What problem should I explore?

What kind of sources am I looking? Will it be government records or policies or scientific books and articles? Or you should study through the press articles? Maybe, historical sources?

Should I find primary sources on my topic? Look through the footnotes in articles you found appropriate for what sources used and why. Look through the studies cited by few selected sources.

2.2  Assess the Value and Relevance of the Chosen Reference

The next step of writing a bibliography is a brief assessment of the importance of the source to your research issue.

In case you need a bibliography as part of an assignment, you should identify why you want to use the source and how. If you’re assigned to write an annotated bibliography as an independent project, examine the source’s contribution to the research.
