Generating an Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography is a list of research materials with a brief summary of their content, and, sometimes, remarks on their significance for a particular research project.

To create an annotated bibliography, you will need to enter this summary in the Abstract field of each record you enter in your CiteWrite datafile.

To generate an annotated bibliography for all the works in your datafile:

  1. Put the cursor in your Word document, at the place where you want to write the annotated bibliography.
  2. In CiteWrite, click Generate, Bibliography. The Bibliography dialog will display.
  3. In the Bibliography dialog, use the drop list to select the style for your bibliography (APA, MLA, or Turabian), and make sure the option to Include Abstracts is checked.
  4. Click OK to write your annotated bibliography.

    Your bibliography will look something like this:

    Note:
    Sometimes the placement of the cursor will cause the References to be generated without double spacing.

    If your Reference list is not double spaced, highlight the entire Reference List, and then click Styles, Formatting, to change the style to References.
