- Create a works cited entry for the source and list it alphabetically by last name of the primary author, making sure to include all necessary information, as required by MLA.
- Immediately follow each entry with your annotation of that work in three paragraphs that are double-spaced and written in italics.
- Begin each annotation with a paragraph summarizing the work including the thesis idea and the main points discussed, followed by a paragraph critiquing the strengths/weaknesses of the work, and ending with a brief synthesis paragraph explaining how the entry might be used within your own argument.
