A literature review is essentially a summary of the research for the topic that you will be writing about.
You would be referencing particular studies as they relate to your points.
You are also typically not adding anything new other than giving and overview of the area of research.

See the following as an example:

I don't know how short of a review you're doing, but the above should give you an idea of what a lit review is like.
