Works Cited/Annotated BibliographyAs part of your final proposal, you are required to include an annotated listing of your research sources. Below are further instructions to help you get it right: 1. Compose an annotated bibliography of at least ten (10) sources for the research topic/problem you have been writing about for the second half of tsemester. Please make sure that any works you cite are properly cited in-text somewhere within your paper. Remember that MLA style in-text citations use parenthesis, enclosing the author?s name or the title if no author, and the page number, if print. Do not use numbers or superscript to cite your sources as either footnotes or endnotes. 2. You must use MLA style for your listing on the last page of all your sources that are cited within the body of your proposal, and the title of the bibliography should be Works Cited, centered and bolded. 3. Make sure you use hanging indents for all of your sources. Tmeans that you do NOT indent the first line, but indent all lines after the first. Review the instructions for hanging indents in your help section for you word processor if you nassistance with this. 4. Please refer to pages 448-456 in Rules for Writers for general guidelines. Please refer to pages 479-526 for MLA specific guidelines. 5. At least five of the sources must include a brief, one paragraph summary as an annotation. Please do NOT copy and paste the abstract from any sources you found online. Write the summary in your own words. Normally, when you are doing real research, you would write notes on a note card with the bibliographic information for citing the source. 6. At least two of thfive sources (and their corresponding summaries) must be based on interviews or site visits you made to gather requirements or pricing. If you conducted more than two interviews, I would prefer that you summarize each of the interviews because it is primary research that is not available to the public, unlike resources or print materials, but it is only mandatory for you to do two.Formula for a good summary:In t[journal article/editorial/book/page/report], [author?s last name] [presents/discusses/analyzes/compares/argues][author?s thesis or purpose for writing]. [Reason/fact/item number one]. [Reason/fact/item number two]. [Reason/fact/item number three]. [Identification of author?s authority/stake in the issue/bias/position]. [Relation to/value of/insight for/opinions about twriting with respect to my research/position/thesis.]Notes: Summary should be 3-7 sentences long. Should assist the reader of your paper with knowing whether tsource would be valuable to them. Identifies potential conflicts or biases of the source. Explains significance of tsource to your research.
