Subject Sampler on Primary Resources Sharon Leff

What’s on first? What are primary resources? Don’t let primary sources throw you any curve balls. Most of you have acquired or saved souvenirs in an effort to capture a time through this “memory keeper” or “keepsake.” Souvenirs are a specific sort of memorabilia often included in primary source collections. Batter up! Take a swing and explore primary sources to get to first base. 1.What are primary sources? http://www.kidscomputerlab.org/index.php/research-skills/primary-vs-secondary-sources/ http://www.yale.edu/collections_collaborative/primarysources/primarysources.html http://www.calstatela.edu/library/guides/pswhat.htm

Where’s on second. Where can you find primary sources? Great! You took a swing, hit a single, and reached first base. Now to steal and advanced to second base, you have to learn where to locate collections of authenticated primary sources. 2. Where can you locate primary sources? http://primarysourcesonline.com/ http://www.archives.gov/ http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/index.html

Why is on third. Why should you include primary sources in your research? Super steal! Now, before you advance to third, take a second look at primary sources to learn how these sources provide eye-witness accounts thus providing a personal, fuller, and unbiased examination of history. 3. Why do you need to include primary sources in your NHD research? http://www.primarysourcelearning.org/ http://www.archives.gov/education/history-in-the-raw.html

How is at home plate! How do you distinguish primary sources from secondary sources? Terrific third base tromp! Now, before you advance to home, keep your eye on the prize. Don’t take off for home until you know that ball is going beyond a glove. Knowing when to run is a lot like determining the difference between a primary source and a secondary source. To reach home plate, you need to know the difference and how to identify the sure scoring hits of primary sources. 4. How do you distinguish primary sources from secondary sources and determine how to use these resources? http://www.kidscomputerlab.org/index.php/research-skills/primary-vs-secondary-sources/ http://sunburst.usd.edu/~khackeme/guides/primarysources.html http://library.nyu.edu/research/subjects/primary/eval.html

Who will be your FIRST primary source? If you do not have a specific player, choose Jackie Robinson and collect 10 primary source souvenirs to capture the memory of your homerun game. 5. Formulate a topic/subject focus and locate, briefly describe, and list 10 primary sources you could include in your research presentation about the significance of baseball, or of a team, or of an individual player..
