Answer
Definition: a list of sources, cited according to a specific style (APA, MLA, Chicago or other), that have been summarized and evaluated for later reference.
How it's useful: It’s a way to organize your sources and notes for a specific research project that will save you time later.
full citations (bibliography) + summary/analysis of each source (annotation) = annotated bibliography
