"Your research sources must include the use of books (note plural) and at least one article from a journal or periodical. You may also use Internet sources."

This is something that drives me nuts. I hate professors who require a certain amount of sources to be from

During one of those info-sessions the librarian pulled up a page on wiki she had bookmarked to talk about and show us how inaccurate about it. When she pulled it up she noticed all the flags on the page and was like "I've never seen this before." I about head-desked. I know they hate wiki and omg never use it but seriously they don't even know how it actually works. X/

I say you find the most ridiculous conspiracy theory filled self published books on the topic and use those as sources. when questioned say that the information came from books so its clearly more reliable than nything you might have found on the internet.
