As well, government sources (.gov)may be included, but should not comprise more than 50 percent of the document. There are more than ample resources to choose from. Limit your choices to sources that are no more than 10 years in existence.
  2. Author information if available (summarized) 

III. Summary of each choice (3-5 sentences)

According to the authors, people with special needs experience more negatively outcomes due to natural and manmade disasters and emergencies than do people without disability. The vulnerability appears to be due in part to knowledge gaps among public health and safety emergency planning and responders. Actually, the above source will play a significant role in providing information to be used as recommendation on how to increase emergency responder knowledge about emergency planning and response for people with special needs including children. 6 Annotated Bibliography Zod, R., Fick-Osborne, R., & Peters, E.
