Annotated Bibliography Assignment
Eng 102
For this assignment you will create an annotated bibliography list of works that you may be using to
complete your documented essay.
You are required to have seven entries
. Your entries must include at
least four peer reviewed articles.
The entries are to be in APA format. For each source that you are listing you need to write a two paragraph
annotation. The first paragraph should be a short summary of the source. The second paragraph should
explain how and why you are using this source.
See below for an example of an annotated bibliography entry.
Ehrenreich, B. (2001).
Nickel and dimed: On (not) getting by in America
. New York: Henry Holt and
Company.
In this book of nonfiction based on the journalist's experiential research, Ehrenreich attempts
to ascertain whether it is currently possible for an individual to live on a minimum-wage in America.
Taking jobs as a waitress, a maid in a cleaning service, and a Wal-Mart sales employee, the author
summarizes and reflects on her work, her relationships with fellow workers, and her financial struggles
in each situation.
An experienced journalist, Ehrenreich is aware of the limitations of her experiment and the
ethical implications of her experiential research tactics and reflects on these issues in the text. The
author is forthcoming about her methods and supplements her experiences with scholarly research on
her places of employment, the economy, and the rising cost of living in America. I will be using this book
to document inherent contradictions between the meritocratic ideal of America and the reality of life in
minimum-wage jobs.
Your entries should be arranged in alphabetical order, based on the first word in the entry, just as they
would appear on a reference page.
