This means spending some time (much of it at the library) looking for sources that fit your working thesis. You will want to find many sources that you can include in a working bibliography. During the process of reading, you will narrow these soutces to the relevant ones. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The Working Bibliography | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The working bibliography is a record of all of the sources that you have collected during the early stages of your research. It will be from this working bibliography that you will create your final bibliography, or works cited page. Your working bibliography should have a minimum of 10 sources. Your working bibliography should include a broad variety of sources. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
