Create an Annotated Bibliography An annotated bibliography is an alphabetized list of sources (including books, documents, videos, articles, web sites, etc.). Each annotation includes a citation, summary and evaluation. The purpose of the annotated bibliography is to help you refine your project goal and objectives, illustrate the quality of research you have done, provide examples of the types of sources available, and help you decide if you have covered the topic thoroughly enough to inform your project goal. The annotated bibliography consists of two elements: 1. Citation in modified APA style which includes: Author, (Date), Title, Retrieval information. a. (Book) Pedraza, S., & Rumbaut, R. (1996). Origins and Destinies: Immigration, Race, and Ethnicity in America. New York, NY: Wadsworth. b. (PDF Document) Gray, V. (July 2012). One City Action Plan [PDF file]. Retrieved from https://mayor.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/mayor/publication/attachments/OC AP_READ_ONLY.pdf c. (Website, no author) About OneDC (nd). Retrieved from http://www.onedconline.org/about 2. Annotation-A paragraph summarizing the main points or ideas found in the item and evaluating each entry in terms of quality, qualifications of the author(s), purpose, and relevance. It should then conclude with a statement with your evaluation of the usefulness of the item in relation to your research topic. The annotated bibliography that you will submit will contain: 1. An alphabetized annotated bibliography 2. Standard reference list/bibliography For more information on Annotated Bibliographies http://udc.libguides.com/c.php?g=670958&p=4722576 http://sites.umuc.edu/library/libhow/bibliography_tutorial.cfm http://lib.skidmore.edu/library/index.php/li371-annotated-bib Annotated Bibliography (Example) Gray, V. (July 2012). One City Action Plan [PDF file]. Retrieved from https://mayor.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/mayor/publication/attachments/OCAP_READ_O NLY.pdf The One City Action Plan provided residents with a summary of the Mayor’s vision for the city’s future in the form of goals, strategies, and actions. The main goals in the Plan: “(1) Grow and Diversify the District Economy; (2) Educate and Prepare the Workforce for the New Economy, and (3) Improve the Quality of Life for All.” One of the notable features of this plan include an example of a project plan with goals and specific measurable or S.M.A.R.T actions. The Plan also includes key indicators that were used to help define each action. The document concludes with a checklist that allows residents to track the progress of the administration. This source would be useful to help our team understand the history of economic growth goals in the District of Columbia and help us understand how to create measurable objectives. However, it would be useful to locate the plan of the current mayor and find documents from non-governmental entities to determine how the plan was received by residents in the city. About One DC (nd). About One DC [website]. Retrieved from http://www.onedconline.org/about One DC is a non-governmental organization whose mission is to help improve equality in the District of Columbia, specifically in Shaw. The web page, “About One DC” contains the organization’s mission— “…to exercise political strength to create and preserve racial and economic equity in Shaw and the District.” It also contains details on the organization’s vision, values, and history. The vision champions organization amongst the low income, poor, and immigrant communities in the city to improve the level and quality of participatory democracy. The values emphasize collective work, social justice, work of the disenfranchised, and free expression. One DC was founded in 1997, probably in response to growing gentrification. The web page provides a good overview of One DC, but provides limited information about current projects—further exploration of the website is needed. Pedraza, S., & Rumbaut, R. (1996). Origins and Destinies: Immigration, Race, and Ethnicity in America. New York, NY: Wadsworth. Origins and Destinies is a collection of essays on immigration, race, and ethnicity in the United States. Some of the essays are historical, covering the African Slave Trade and Native Americans, as well as the pre-WWI waves of immigration: Northern European and Southern/Eastern European. Other essays cover the post-1960 waves of Asian and Latin American immigration. Also featured are essays on urbanization, race in in American and other topics relevant to race, ethnicity and class in the United States. The article on the District of Columbia was written by Robert Manning and provides an historical overview of the changing racial/ethnic landscape of the city, with graphable data for 1860 to 1990. More current information on this topic is needed to cover 1990 to the present. Bibliography Gray, V. (July 2012). One City Action Plan [PDF file].
