How to Search Online Databases

Page 2: Journal search brcc

What is a source?There are two types of sources we will be using:

primary and secondary.The primary source is the original text you read,

such as Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics.The secondary source is the article you will find

that deals with the topic you are discussing in your paper.

Both the primary and the secondary sources must be cited.
