- Primary documents: Original research or creative works by the author (e.g., books, articles, theses).
- Secondary documents: Descriptive or analytical resources used to locate and understand primary documents (e.g., library catalogs, bibliographies, databases).
- Tertiary documents: Compilations summarizing knowledge or providing concise explanations of terms, authors, or topics (e.g., encyclopedias, dictionaries, directories).
Reference Tools
