How To Write an Annotation
Created by Essay-Academy.com
What is an Annotation?
An annotation is supposed to persuade the reader to
read the work. It is an enhanced summary of a
publication, article or a book.
The author of an annotation should be able to guide
the reader and examine the work so it would be
clear whether it needs to be read or not.
What is an Annotation?
Annotations are used in bibliographies which are
an essential part to any scholarly article.
 The best way to organize a bibliography is to
provide discussion on how the literature is
related to each other.
Annotation writing tips:
 Authors of the works should be clearly identified along with
their degrees and qualifications.
 In case when a writer or a scientist is well-known, it is
allowed to exclude qualifications.
 It is recommended to include this information in the first
sentence of annotation paragraph.
For example, “Gregg H. Popovich, an American sociology
professor at Houston University, used historical documents
to base his research.”
Annotation writing tips:
 The author of an annotation should provide the main
purpose and the scope of the text.
 It is recommended to make one or two sentences.
For example, “He describes that Swedes played an
extremely important role in the uprising in the region.
They supplied funding, rifles and war ships and helped to
initiate the uprising.”
 You need to be as clear as possible and keep the length
of no more than 150 words.
Annotation writing tips:
 Relate the work to other ones in the field. For
example, “Dennis Johnson’s conclusions are
similar to those in Blake Griffin’s Uprising in the
Baltic.”
 Relation of the theme to the position of author
should also be described: “On the other hand,
Johnson’s position is supported by pro-
revolutionary concept, which was examined by
the reviewer.”
Annotation writing tips:
In the final sentence of the annotation you need to
include a comment which summarizes the content of
the book: “This specific scientific work provides new
information which will be of interest to informed
readers and scholars”.
 There are other elements in annotations but if you
describe mentioned points it is enough for your work to
be submitted.
