• Researchers validating each others work before publication

• Types of documents • Patents: government granted license to an invention• Journals: Research results are presented in periodicals• Books: 

• Reference: encyclopedia, tables, data collections, properties• Manuals: lab methods, programming language, operating systems• Monographs: general topics

• Conference proceedings: Research results presented at a meeting. Often peer‐reviewed, but not always. 

• Technical specifications: how a device of component works i.e. circuit diagrams

• Code library: database of source code listings or linkable subroutines
