♫ Appropriate Tools - Week 2 ♬
Topic 2 : Describe appropriate tools & search stratrategies
to find information
This week, I learned about Primary,
secondary & tertiary sources. Before I learned about this topic I don’t
understand what is primary, secondary & tertiary sources. But, after that I
already understand what that all means. J
Primary Sources means original
document (first hand Information). Also they are written after the fact. Next
is about secondary sources, secondary sources usually interpret primary sources
( second hand Information). They usually do a examination & researchers
again about what they found or know from primary sources. Usually in form of
published works are journal article, books & radio and TV documentaries.
Lastly, Tertiary sources. Tertiary sources is collection of primary &
secondary sources, includes most types of references. There are example for
primary, secondary & tertiary sources:
Biography also secondary sources.
Biography is when you write about another person life. And Autobiography is
when you write about your own life.
Example for tertiary sources are bibliographies of bibliography,
Directories if directories & Guides to the literature.
And after that we learn about DCC
& LCC. DCC is Dewey Decimal Classification. They only number. And LCC is
Library of Congress Classification. They have alphabet and number. From this
topic I also know what is the function OPAC (Online Public Access Catalog) use
in my university library . J
