Guide to information sources
open-in-new
<p>A Guide to information sources (or a bibliographic guide, a literature guide, a guide to reference materials, a subject gateway, etc.) is a kind of <a href="/facts/Metabibliography/y62zvGeM">metabibliography</a>. Ideally it is not just a listing of <a href="/facts/Bibliographies/xul38mej">bibliographies</a>, <a href="/facts/Reference_work/7Fq2pIYG">reference works</a> and other <a href="/facts/Source_text/CAG9Fpbz">source texts</a>, but more like a <a href="/facts/Textbook/9sunkH2y">textbook</a> introducing users to the information sources in a given field (in general). </p><p>Such guides may have many different forms: Comprehensive or highly selective, printed or electronic sources, annotated listings or written chapters etc. </p>
