Considerations
Make no assumptions that students have done this* before, regardless of class level.
* “This” being writing a paper; conducting a research project; reading a scholarly article; been taught to use a database…
![Page 19: Dig Deep But Don't Go Under](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a65d1f17f8b9a3d248b4715/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Parameters
• Know the boundaries• Currency
• Specificity
• Not all “databases” or “library resources” are created equal
![Page 20: Dig Deep But Don't Go Under](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a65d1f17f8b9a3d248b4715/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Be Specific
• What do you expect by “scholarly” sources
• Name specific databases as suggestions*
• Which websites to avoid besides Wikipedia, if applicable
• Name the specific citation style and don’t deviate
* “EBSCO” is not a database
![Page 21: Dig Deep But Don't Go Under](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022415/5a65d1f17f8b9a3d248b4715/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Variety
Scholarly sources are not lifelong sources.
