Annotated
Bibliography
http://www.wisc.edu/writing/Handbook/AnnotatedBibliography.html
An annotated bibliography is, simply, an organized list of sources, each of which is followed by a brief note or "annotation." These annotations do one or more of the following: describe the content and focus of the book or article; suggest the source's usefulness to your research; evaluate its method, conclusions, or reliability; record your reactions to the source.
