For your writing scenario in this module, your work supervisor has asked you to choose one issue that is important in your field; you will be required to share your resources with colleagues at a weekly research-roundtable type workshop. The topics most relevant to the public will also be shared with a broader audience. Your supervisor is working on an online resource to provide outreach to the public. Your supervisor is putting together a collection of annotated bibliographies as a way to present information to the public in an organized manner; your supervisor hopes to write short papers or presentations on the most important issues that can be shared with a broader audience.

Before completing this assignment, be sure to review the information on annotated bibliographies from the Excelsior College OWL located at:

Excelsior College Online Writing Lab. (n.d.). Annotated bibliographies. Retrieved fromhttp://owl.excelsior.edu/posts/view/41.

As you read each of the three sources required for this assignment, make sure to record all the necessary information about the source, name of the journal, book, database, publication and retrieval date, and page numbers.

You will create an annotated bibliography, as demonstrated in the Excelsior College Online Writing Lab.

Required elements:

1.   Annotations for at least three sources.
2.   Two sources must be from the library databases. One source may be a credible source of your choice.
3.   Each source must be followed by a one-paragraph summary of the source and then a one- or two-sentence evaluation of the article focusing on the credibility and helpfulness of each source.
