You must submit a preliminary ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY listing sources for your COMM 101 Term Research Project

• The bibliography must include at least SIX, "available-in-print" sources and as many other sources as you care to include. 

• You must list the entries in MLA "Works Cited" format.  Use your Bedford Handbook" (from ILA/ Engl 110) to look up how to properly cite the types of sources you are including on a "Works Cited" page.  You can also find the information you need on citing sources at the web site designed to accompany your handbook.  That site is found at

Bedford Manual Web Site on Citing Sources

• Be sure to identify the overview source (within the annotation for that source). 

• For each of the six (or more) items in your bibliography, be sure to include a one to three sentence "annotation" that summarizes, in your own words, the content of the source item.

  Smart researchers examine the references listed in the better articles they find (esp. from overview sources) in order to see if any of those references may be useful for their projects.  Useful index terms for your searches can also be discovered this way (i.e. When you do a search in EbscoHost or some other data base, what search terms are listed for one or more of the better articles?  Try those in a new search.).

The Annotated Bibliography is due Tuesday, 3/2.
