Annotated Bibliography

An annotated bibliography is a list of sources, such as books, magazines, articles, websites, etc., with a short summary about the source and a few sentences about how good the source is and how it helps in your research. So you will have a citation, then a few sentences summary, and a few sentences talking about how the source contributed to your research.

You are requiring us to write one of these because it will help us think about our sources and to really look into what we are researching. The information included will also help anyone who reads our research paper.

This can help me in my research project by requiring me to look and think about the sources I read. It will allow me to follow my topic closely and can help redefine my research question to be as specific as possible. The annotated bibliography can help in many ways to help me create the best research project possible.

Special collections is a library of old historical things. It has mostly primary sources - some from people that were famous, some form people who were not famous. It has many things relating to local history, Georgia history, and much more. You can find old books, newspapers, photos, scholarly journals, family histories, etc. I could use the primary sources of Special Collections to find old books on guns and how they were used. I could also find out about how guns were made and the types of people that owned guns and how they were acquired. What type of processes did people have to go through to become a gun owner. I could answer questions relating to gun ownership and how that has changed to recent times. It can give me some history into previous gun control laws and what the people of the time thought about them.
