Research source library structure
A lightweight structure for organizing authoritative sources, topics, claims, dates, and reuse decisions.
Research operations10 sources
Key stats
- A source library should preserve context, not just URLs.
- Tags for topic, authority, date, and use make later review faster.
- Reuse still requires checking whether the source supports the new claim.
Key takeaways
- Store source title, publisher, URL, date, and notes.
- Record which claims the source supports and which it does not.
- Review high-impact entries on a defined schedule.
Library fields
| Field | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Publisher | Establishes authority |
| Topic | Enables relevant discovery |
| Verified date | Shows freshness |
| Claim note | Prevents overextension |
The maintenance routine defines review; the source workflow defines acceptance.
