What are the different types of web sources available?
• Online magazines and online scholarly journals- These sources are similar to the sources you will find in the subscription databases with two exceptions. The first being that these sources have no printed publication in circulation; these documents “live” on the internet and you will not be able to find them any other way. The second being that fewer of these articles will be peer- reviewed which makes them less reliable than many of the scholarly articles you will find in a database. • Online literary texts- These are texts that are out of copyright and free works in the public domain. These are books, plays, or collections of poetry that can be accessed online and, more often than not, a hard copy can also be found. A good source for this type of source is http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page . • E-Books- These are books that are still under copyright but can be accessed online. RSCC has quite a collection at http://www.netlibrary.com/ . • Online news sites- These sources are us
