This library worskhop intendes to support your quest for film sources.

Your overall goal in this assignment is to analyze the adaptation process from Philip K. Dick’s short story “Adjustment Team” to George Nolfi’s film The Adjustment Bureau. I have created this research guide as a springboard to help you begin finding information sources.

Taking a basic research approach early on may help you to start exploring facts, opinions/arguments/questions, and the relevancy and quality of sources that you discover.

Each draft is an opportunity to review and sometimes replace the sources from which you draw support/evidence.

Book sources.

Contain older, well-established overviews of a subject. These may be factual or biographical sources like an enyclopedia of literary terms or an autobiography about a person's life. 

Articles from newspapers, magazines, and research journals.

Magazine articles can contain recent or historical reviews of a film by a professional critic, while journals contain "scholarly conversations" or research studies that more deeply critique a film's subject matter or meaning.

Citing sources.

As you gather sources on your topic, you will need to cite those sources using the citation style recommended or required for this class. Source citations can be organized and stored in citation management systems like Zotero.
