Annotated Bibliography

English 1302 Annotated Bibliography #1

The Annotated Bibliography you have to complete for Essay #1 provides me with brief summaries and evaluations of each of the sources you consult, which will be used as support for your ideas in Essay #1. Please be sure to review the guidelines on creating an Annotated Bibliography well as the sample Annotated Bibliography provided to you.

As a reminder, you need to have a total of four (4) sources for Essay #1. Three of these will be articles that I have already provided you, and you may choose among the essays by Simpson, Tugend, Carr, and Schwartz. This means you have to locate just one additional source on your own.

NOTE: You may not complete Essay #1 by relying on open internet sources, and if that is your habit, change it now. You are expected to use the library's Online Databases to locate useful and credible sources for your Annotated Bibliography.

To complete the AB, for each source you have, do the following:

1. Cite the source of your information in MLA format. Be sure to include all of the relevant and required pieces of information for the type of source used. 2. Write the annotation. In general, a good annotation will include:

• A summary of the information in the original source (one paragraph). • An evaluation of the quality and/or usefulness of the source (one paragraph).

To help you out, here are the full citations for the essays I’ve provided you: Carr, Nicholas. “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” The Atlantic, Atlantic Media Company, 2008,

Once again, your Annotated Bibliography needs to contain four (4) entries. Once you have submitted your Annotated Bibliography, you can begin working on your draft of Essay #1.
