Digging Into History: Using Primary and Secondary Sources Like a Pro In-Person / Online

A librarian from CU Boulder's Norlin Library will explain the difference between primary and secondary sources and how each can be used to support strong historical research. This session is especially helpful for students participating in National History Day and will offer practical strategies for finding, evaluating, and incorporating sources into your project.
This is a hybrid event—attend in person or join online to participate.
