Primary Sources- There is several types of primary sources. Examples of these are novels, poems, speeches, letters, diaries, blogs, and eyewitness accounts. Primary sources are mainly someone’s original words. They are mostly about them or accounts that they witnessed themselves.
Secondary Sources- These is sources that are written about a person, event, or topic. Some examples are biographies, encyclopedias, and news articles. Secondary sources are just as good as primary sources; they are just not about the person who wrote them.
Popular Sources- Popular sources are usually made by authors, journalists, or reporters. The sources are not listed and the topics are briefly addressed. You would most likely find these at newsstands and stores.
Scholarly Sources- These is written by authors who have academic credentials. These authors have studied the topic in depth and know how to present both sides of the topic. These sources are more credible that popular sources.
