necessary to fully understand the issue at hand, solve that problem (or

audiences, and directly contact resources and experts in different
professions and in the community. You also may need information in
addition to or instead of scholarly resources. Local and national
journalism may add context and perspective. Professional experts,
government agencies, state and local authorities all may be relevant
sources, as are individuals in target populations. Essentially, research
