This comprehensive and practical guide covers the elements, style,
and use of annotated bibliographies in the research and writing
process for any discipline; key disciplinary conventions; and tips
for working with digital sources. Written jointly by a library
director and a writing center director, this book is packed with
examples of individual bibliography entries and full bibliography
formats for a wide range of academic needs. Online resources
include sample bibliographies, relevant web links, printable
versions of checklists and figures, and further resources for
instructors and researchers. Writing the Annotated Bibliography is
an essential resource for first-year and advanced composition
classes, courses in writing across the disciplines, graduate
programs, library science instruction programs, and academic
libraries at the secondary level and beyond. It is suitable for
both undergraduate and graduate students and for researchers at all
levels.
For the most part, those who teach writing and administer writing
programs do not conduct research on writing. Perhaps more
significantly, they do not often read the research done by others
because effective reading of articles on empirical research
requires special knowledge and abilities. By and large, those
responsible for maintaining and improving writing instruction
cannot -- without further training -- access work that could help
them carry out their responsibilities more effectively. This book
is designed as a text in graduate programs that offer instruction
in rhetoric and composition. Its primary educational purposes are:
* to provide models and critical methods designed to improve the
reading of scientific discourse * to provide models of effective
research designs and projects appropriate to those learning to do
empirical research in rhetoric. Aiming to cultivate new attitudes
toward empirical research, this volume encourages an appreciation
of the rhetorical tradition that informs the production and
critical reading of empirical studies. The book should also
reinforce a slowly growing realization in English studies that
empirical methods are not inherently alien to the humanities,
rather that methods extend the power of humanist researchers trying
to solve the problems of their discipline.
