Notebibliograph

Notebibliograph is a term that refers to a bibliography or list of sources that also includes annotations or notes for each entry. These notes can vary widely in purpose and content. Typically, they might summarize the source's main argument, assess its strengths and weaknesses, comment on its relevance to a particular research topic, or indicate how it will be used in a larger project. Notebibliographs are often used in academic settings, particularly during the research and writing process for essays, theses, dissertations, and other scholarly works. They serve as a tool for students and researchers to keep track of their reading, organize their research, and plan their arguments. The act of creating a notebibliograph can also help in the critical evaluation of sources and the development of a deeper understanding of the subject matter. While traditional bibliographies simply list the sources cited, a notebibliograph adds a layer of analytical engagement with each source. The format of a notebibliograph is not strictly standardized and can be adapted to suit the individual needs of the user, though it generally follows a citation style followed by the annotation.
