Writing an annotated bibliography to guide a research essay or paper is an excellent preparation for a research project. The purpose of just collecting the information is useful. When a person is writing information about each source, you are forced to read the source more carefully. This forces the researcher to read the information more critically instead of just collecting information. An annotated bibliography can help you gain a good perspective on what is being said about your topic. When reading and responding many sources on a topic, the researcher will start to see what issues are important and what people are arguing about, this enables them to develop their own point of view. This allows the researcher to see what has been done in the literature and where the information can fit throughout their paper. An annotated bibliography can help formulate a thesis that is interesting and current.
