Literature Review
• What is it?–Survey of sources, scholarly articles,
government docs, books, dissertations, conference
proceedings…–Overview of significant literature on a
topic often limited to a specific time period

Literature Review
• What is it not?–An academic research paper, which is
most often constructed as an argument and the information you are seeking is to support said argument–Literature review is summery of arguments already made by others

Literature Review
• Both must have–Focus (narrow your topic)
–Thesis statement (not an argument for a position but will have a particular
perspective announcing the topic you will be reviewing)
