What is an annotated bibliography?
An annotated bibliography is a
ief summary and evaluation of a number of selected texts. It
includes the full referencing details of each text placed in alphabetical order. It also includes a
ief description or summary of the contents, a
ief critical analysis and often an evaluation of the
elevance and usefulness of the text. The bibliographic reference usually serves as the heading for
the summary and analysis.
You might be asked to produce an annotated bibliography:
• to become familiar with a particular topic or area of study, often to help you prepare for a
future assignment
• to produce a relevant resource list (eg an age-specific reading list for a primary school class, a
list of up-to-date resources
eadings for a particular topic area), and
• to help you learn how to reference properly
In general, an annotated bibliography should include:
• the full bibliographic details of each text a
anged and punctuated according to the
eferencing system you are required to use (eg APA6, Harvard). This often serves as the
heading for each entry in your bibliography.
• a summary, overview or
ief description of the contents of each text
• a critical analysis of each text (strengths and weaknesses of the text)
• a statement of the relevance or usefulness of each text (eg to others in that area of study or
work, or to a particular assignment task
• each entry should also be placed in alphabetical order according to the author’s surname.
When you begin:
• Find out what your lecturer is expecting by reading the assignment task and marking criteria
carefully (eg number of annotations, word limit).
• Use your research skills and reading skills to select the texts that will enable you to complete
your assessment task.
Writing the summary
It is here that you get a chance to demonstrate your skills in summarising and paraphrasing. Avoid
quotes. Focus on the main ideas in the text, don’t be distracted by details. Two questions to ask
are:
What is the main idea (or ideas) being presented?
What ideas and evidence is used to support this idea/point?

Writing the critique
The critique is your critical response to the text you have read. These comments can be placed after
the summary or integrated into the summary. Some questions to help you evaluate or judge the
text include:
Does the text contribute to my understanding of the topic? If so, in what way?
Does it add to the existing knowledge on this topic? If so, in what way (draw on additional or prior
eadings about the topic)?
How do the structure, organisation and presentation of the ideas in the text contribute to its
effectiveness?
How well does the author achieve his/her purpose?
Would I recommend this text to someone interested in this topic?
How useful
elevant is the text for your topic area and/or your assignment or research?
Extract from an annotated bibliography
Assignment task: Read and begin to think about how you would respond to the ethical issues
involved in the case study. Include 5 entries each with a max. of 200 words.
Collis, S. P XXXXXXXXXXThe importance of truth-telling in health care [Art & Science: Literature Review].
Nursing Standard, XXXXXXXXXXRCN Publishing Company. January 4, XXXXXXXXXXpp XXXXXXXXXXRetrieved
March 3, 2006 from http:
gateway.ut.ovid.com.ezproxy.scu.edu.au/gw1/ovidweb.cgi
This article examines the concepts of truth-telling and deception and whether deception is ever
justifiable in health care. Possible reasons for the recent interest in truth-telling in health care
are offered as well as issues associated with deceiving patients. Wider arguments supporting
and opposing deception in health care are considered before suggested alternatives to the use
of deception in patient care are outlined. It appears to be a well-researched and well-structured
article that uses examples to provide a
ief understanding of some of the ethical issues (eg trust
and duty, truth-telling, deception or selective non-disclosure) that confront nurses when trying to
communicate effectively and ethically with the terminally ill patient. However, while the article
is very useful in helping to clarify arguments it does not give a rule as to how one should decide.
This literature is highly relevant to the case study as it explores the ethical issues of truth-telling as
opposed to non-disclosure in regard to beneficence and non-maleficence and recommends that
these decisions should be individualized. It points out that the patient may suffer psychologically if
told the truth, or if the manner in which they are told is not conducted with extreme sensitivity.
Note how this annotation:
• begins with the bibliographical details for the text (in APA 6 format)
• includes a
ief summary of the contents/focus of the text
• includes critical comments about the text – in this case positive comments, as well as
comments about limitations of the text
• evaluates the relevance of the text for the assignment topic.
