Bibliothèque et archives

• Books are extremely valuable resources when doing in-depth research on a topic! Authors have hundreds of pages to give detailed explanations and background information surrounding the various facets of your research interest.
• Using this kind of in-depth information will make it easier to form a research question or thesis statement (or even spark your inspiration)
• The bibliographies found in books are extensive, and will point you to other resources to add to your own resource list.
• Remember: scholars write journal articles under the assumption that you already have a relatively thorough understanding of the topic – this means that you will likely not find the foundational information needed for your topic in the beginning stages of your research process. In this sense, books become indispensable
