About Reference Highlights
Encyclopedias and handbooks are useful
for finding basic background information on
a topic and are good places to start the
research process. Many of them provide
short bibliographies in their entries, which
lead you to key readings for a particular
topic.
Dictionaries provide brief definitions of
unfamiliar words, terms and acronyms.
