S2. Ep.2 - Sources

Sources are integral to academic and scientific writing. As a student or researcher, sources will be your bread and butter - something you cannot live without. But what makes a good source? What should you be aware of when reading literature to support your research?

Niklas and Clay take some time to go through the difference between scholarly sources, non-academic sources, gray literature, primary sources, secondary sources and more. While sources seem so obvious, there is more beneath the surface that you should direct your attention to.
