# Flashwriting
In the reading, we learned about 3 kinds of sources: primary sources, secondary sources, and tertiary sources. Primary sources vary depending on field. For example, the definition of a primary source in literature varies from its definition in history. A secondary source is based on a primary source, and could be seen as a "second-hand account".

# Discussion on Sources
## Primary Sources
- Original Material
- Used to Provide Evidence
- Quotation
- Examples:
- A journal or a diary of a person at an event
- Tweet (Twitter)
- Survey Data
- The book that you are directly writing about
- The Bloody Chamber
## Secondary Sources
- Provide Evidence (of a different kind than primary sources)
- Quotation (about the primary source *meta*)
- Report on primary sources
- Examples:
- Close Reading Paper
- Scholarly Articles
- A tweet about another tweet
## Tertiary Sources
- Report on Secondary Sources
- Compile Secondary Sources
- Examples:
- Wikipedia (as a whole)
- Articles serve as "mini-tertiary sources"
- **Encyclopedia**
- Anthologies

# How to Find Primary and Secondary Sources
- In the previous quarter, we found sources that were **credible** or **authoritative**
- For this paper, we will be looking for **peer-reviewed**, **scholarly** writing
- **Peer-reviewed**: Vetted for quality control
- **Scholarly**: written with a scholarly audience in mind
---
1. Source on web for **MLA International Bibliography**
- Alternatively, use **JSTOR**
2. Select to `limit to Peer Reviewed Journal`
3. Some sources will have a link to a PDF of the full text
- For sources without a link, click `Find in Library`. From here, you can request a digital copy of the source
- Don't Use OneSearch! Use **OSCAR** instead
- Best ways to search primary sources
