For this assignment, you will develop an annotated bibliography which
thoroughly breaks down five public affairs sources on the narrowed
topic you’ve selected. To remind yourself what constitutes a public
affairs source, you can revisit your textbook’s chapter on finding and
evaluating sources. Public affairs sources, such as newspapers,
magazines, nonfiction books, and documentary films, are a good
starting point for research because they often include broader
overviews of issues and are accessible to general readers. Your
sources need to be reasonably lengthy to be useful — you’re looking
for a fairly in-depth discussion of your issue, not simply a short
book review or brief notice related to your issue. These are the
sources that are going to provide you the most information with the
most thorough discussion of your research topic.
