Encyclopedias
Encyclopedias
contain factual articles on many subjects.
There are two
types of encyclopedias -- general and subject. General encyclopedias
provide overviews on a wide variety of topics. Subject encyclopedias
contain entries focusing on one field of study, usually signed by
at least one academic scholar in a related field.
A lot of subject encyclopedias are
available online in
Gale Virtual Reference Library
or
Infobase eBooks. The Research Starters you may
come across in OneSearch are also subject encylcopedia articles.
