Activities 
Visit any big university or special library and persue through guides to reference 
sources, publisher's catalogues, book selection tools, or collection of reference 
sources in libraries. Try to collect as many examples of ready reference sources as 
you can and classify them in different types of ready reference sources we have 
surveyed in this unit. Also evaluate a few reference sources according to the 
evaluation criteria discussed in this unit.
