Essay english 101 – research project – annotated bibliography

Students will need to have a working bibliography for their research papers. This is a list of the sources that the student is considering using and all their publishing information. The difference between this bibliography and the final Works Cited page in the essay is that this list of sources will also have the student provide a descriptive evaluation of the book, web page, or article.

Automatic Works Cited Generators

Students are welcome to use automatic works cited generators like Citation Machine (Links to an external site.) and EasyBib (Links to an external site.), but students must keep in mind:

1. Garbage in – garbage out: Whatever you put into the citation generator will just be spit out in an organized manner, it will not actually check for accuracy. 

2. Students must double-check their citations against their handbooks and/or The OWL at Purdue website.
