I am sure it is mostly because you lost a lot of info, but you're annotations do not really give me enough information for me to know how they might be used. It might be helpful to say a bit more about each source, like maybe some of the results from the 38 interviews in the annotation for that source. Also, I wonder about the authors of your sources; who are they? Are they reliable? You said in your research process draft that a lot of what you found was political in some way. Were any of these sources ones you felt were political? It might be good to tell in the annotation any political bias they might have. Good job finding so much in a pinch; it must have been very frustrating.
again, lil biting gnome = tamara
