Abstract
Professors, social scientists, scientists, and experts use categories and terminology to describe types of literature. It is important to be familiar with and understand this terminology when conducting research and evaluating information sources. This is an especially useful tool for any student writing an annotated bibliography. Learn to use the terminology of a professional - audience, peer-review status, publishing process, seminal works, primary research, secondary research, practice literature, tertiary sources, and more.
