Resources:

In order to effectively research your world religion, you must use different types of informational sources as this improves the reliability of the information you are gathering. You are required to use at least one source from each of the following:

1. Books (Search your library holdings).

2. Encyclopedia articles (These may be on CD such as Encarta or hard copy sets such as World Book Encyclopedia).

3. Websites (Look at the links below for excellent websites on each of the major world religions).

Choose the most informative, reliable, and easy to understand sources.

* It is critical that you accurately record your informational sources on a bibliography sheet as this is one of the criteria requirements for your research. Please attach this to your "Information Research Chart".
