But how do I use primary
sources in my NHD project?
![Page 12: Introduction to Primary Source Learning and LOC Archives](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/56814376550346895daff617/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
It’s all about
Asking Questions of Sources
“the more you look, the more you see.”

Inquiry #1 Question: What’s
happening in this home?
Babies: “Babies crying” Man:
“Sitting down while lady goes out, he doesn’t look happy”
Lady:“She’s Dressed weird”
Sign:“Votes for women”

Inquiry #2 Question: What’s happening
in this home?
Babies:This clue might hint that this problem caused all the mishap in the house like the crying babies.
Man:This guy is depressed because he has to watch their kids and she gets to go out.
Lady:This might mean that the woman in the poster is going outside.
Sign:This clue might hint that the woman might go vote or fight for women’s rights.

Inquiry Strategies
Sourcing Consider a document's attribution (both its author and how the document came into being).
Contextualizing Situate the document and events it reports in place and time.
Corroborating Check important details across multiple sources to determine points of agreement and disagreement.
Close Reading Read carefully to consider what a source says and the language used to say it.
