research question. If you are writing an annotated biboliography, you may need to summarize each item briefly, but should still follow through themes and concepts and do some critical assessment of material. use an overall introduction and conclusion to state the scope of your coverage and to formulate the question,problem,or concept your chosen material illuminates. usually you will have the option of grouping items into sections-this helps you indicate comparisons and relationships. you may be able to write a paragraph or so to introduce the focus of each section.(taylor,dena(2003)
