Secondary sources involve analysis, synthesis, interpretation, or evaluation of primary sources. They
often attempt to describe or explain primary sources.
Scholarly journals, although generally considered to be secondary sources, often contain articles on very
specific subjects and may be the primary source of information on new developments.
Primary and secondary categories are often not fixed and depend on the study or research you are
undertaking. For example, newspaper editorial/opinion pieces can be both primary and secondary. If
exploring how an event affected people at a certain time, this type of source would be considered a
primary source. If exploring the event, then the opinion piece would be responding to the event and
therefore is considered to be a secondary source.

Primary vs. Secondary Sources
Primary
Secondary
Primary sources provide direct or firsthand evidence about an event, person, or object. These sources are
contemporary to the events and people described. In the context of historical research, primary sources are sources
that were created during the specific time period being studied.
How can I tell if something is a primary source?
Whether a resource can be considered a primary source depends heavily on your specific research question and on
the context (the who, what, when, where, and why) of the source you are examining.
To determine whether something can be considered a primary source, first consider your research question: Who or
what are you researching? What time period are you focusing on? What region?
Once you've thought about the who/ what/ where/ when of your topic, ask similar questions of the source:
By answering these questions, you can develop a basic understanding of the context surrounding that source, and
how it relates to your research question or topic.
Some examples of primary sources include:
Newspaper articles
Diaries
Letters
Memoirs and autobiographies
Speeches
Photographs
Novels, poems
Government documents
