Types of Resources

There are three main types of resources: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary sources are the first hand report of what happened or the original document, picture, poster, cartoon, video, etc. Secondary sources tend to analyze or interpret or revisit the primary sources. Secondary sources include an analysis of of an eyewitness account, a persuasive essay, etc. Tertiary sources include sources that include a collection of primary and secondary sources, such as a textbook or encyclopedia.
