You can use Wikipedia as a starting point for your research.

• Get an overview of your topic.
• Pull out some keywords.
• Check out the references and further reading sections toward the bottom of each page.
• NOTE: Wikipedia should not be cited in your final Works Cited page. Please confirm any information found on Wikipedia either in the cited source OR in a reliable, separate source you found.
  • You can read about why you might not want to cite Wikipedia in academic work here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia%3ACiting_Wikipedia
