Consider your research topic...

  • Identify and outline the areas of your research topic

 

  • What types of information sources do you need to effectively answer your question or complete your assessment?

 

  • Does your project require primary, secondary or tertiary sources; or a combination of these?

Primary Sources

First hand accounts or records of activity as they happened or were created, without subsequent interpretation or commentary.

Examples include:  

  • Theses and research findings
  • Financial data, company filings, legal documents
  • Speeches, correspondence and diaries
  • Interviews and first hand news accounts
