==Definition==<br />
A source is a text (sometimes oral presentation, audio recording, video recording) from which (genealogical) information is derived. <br />
<br />
Scientifically, one will make 3 distinctions:<br />
#Primary source : text which is a firsthand written evidence of history, made at the time of the [[event]] by someone who has seen it happen. Eg: diaries, certificates, newspapers, ...<br />
#Secondary source : Written accounts of history based upon the evidence from primary sources and other secondary sources, offering commentary and analysis. Eg: history books, genealogical publications,...<br />
#Tertiary source : selection and compilation of primary and secondary sources. Eg: library catalogue, bibliographies, ...<br />
