INTRODUCTION

WHILE WORKING ON A DISSERTATION, THE STUDENTS
NEED TO TAKE CARE OF VARIOUS FACTORS
  • One of those factors is the right selection and
    combination of the information sources.
  • Researching for the dissertation is essential to
    score high in it.
  • One should know the sources that can provide you
    with the required quality resources.

BOOKS FROM ONLINE LIBRARIES
5
IN THIS DIGITAL WORLD, MOST OF THE UNIVERSITIES
HAVE AN ONLINE LIBRARY CATALOGUE FOR THE STUDENTS
  • Through the portal, the students can search for
    resources with the help of name of the book,
    author, publication, and subject.
  • You will get access to resources, which would
    otherwise be difficult to find in an offline
    library.
  • Students can also access the public libraries for
    books.

JOURNALS
7
IN DISSERTATION WRITING, JOURNALS PLAY A VITAL
ROLE
  • Students can borrow the journals from their
    university library.
  • Incorporating the information from a journal will
    increase the quality of the dissertation.
  • Students can also look for more journals on the
    internet.

DATABASES
9
THE STUDENTS CAN ALSO LOOK FOR INFORMATION ON
VARIOUS ONLINE DATABASES
  • These databases specialize in a specific subject
    and hence have in-depth information about a
    single topic.
  • Some of the popular databases are JSTOR and Credo
    Reference.

5.
OLD DISSERTATIONS
11
SOME OF THE UNIVERSITIES HOLD THEIR OLD
DISSERTATION IN DATABASES
  • These dissertations are made available to the
    university students or the public.
  • At an early stage of writing a dissertation, the
    students can refer the old dissertation for some
    guidance.
  • Ensure that you do not copy anything from the
    previous dissertation.

AUDIO-VISUALS
13
THE AUDIO-VISUAL SOURCES ARE A VERY VALUABLE
SOURCE FOR CREATIVE SUBJECTS
  • There are several audio-visuals you can include
    such as movies, radio interviews, and television
    programmes.
  • When the students combine these sources with the
    written sources, the dissertation quality
    increases. It also takes the dissertation beyond
    the expectations of the tutor.

BOOKSHOPS
15
MOST OF THE STUDENTS OFTEN UNDERESTIMATE THE
VALUE OF BOOKSHOPS
  • These are the places that are a treasure for
    finding resources.
  • To find the nearest bookstore, the students can
    search the internet.
  • Moreover, they can also ask from their friends
    and family for a good and resourceful bookstore.

ONLINE STORES
17
STUDENTS CAN ALSO FIND BOOKS ON ONLINE STORES
SUCH AS AMAZON AND EBAY
  • These websites provide the book for a very cheap
    rate.
  • One of the biggest advantages of an online store
    is that you can find a rare piece of resource
    that is not available as an electronic resource.

CONCLUSION
19
YOU CAN LOOK FOR ALL THESE AREAS TO IDENTIFY THE
RIGHT COMBINATION OF RESOURCES
  • While doing the research through these places,
    you should ensure that you note down the details
    of resources.
  • You can also get dissertation help from
    dissertation writing services such as
    Uniresearchers, where you can buy dissertation
    online.
