Encyclopedias can be a good way to start your research. Encyclopedia entries can include:

• a historical context of your topic
• names of key researchers in the field
• explanations of theories and key concepts
• chronologies/timelines
• lists of articles and books about a topic

When you are ready to search library databases for articles or books, try using some of the key terms from the encyclopedia entry discussing your topic.

Use this Research Worksheet to keep track of library databases, keywords/search terms, authors, and other sources used during the research process.
