| After receiving the instructions for an upcoming assignment, John was upset. |
|
 | I can't believe my professor won't let us use Wikipedia to find academic sources. | |
|
| Come on, John. Wikipedia is not a credible source, anybody can edit it. | |
|
|
|
|
|
| John continues to bemoan his current situation. |
|
| But it is so quick and easy. | |
|
| John, anything worth doing well requires effort. You can use Wikipedia for simple background information, but academic research requires authoritative sources. | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Where can I find these authoritative sources? | |
|
| Visit the library's Subject Guides. And John, when in doubt, just contact one of the librarians. They can tell you where to go. | |
