"Do We Outside Sources for our Essay?"

I've recently had to field a couple of questions regarding outside sources for the essay. Here is my answer:

To answer your question: no outside sources are required. I
like to focus on original critical analysis. But if you have
consulted any outside sources (in a general way), you can put them in
your bibliography. If you are using any original theories or
insights from those sources, you must include them in a bibliography,
and probably in an endnote. (General information, or information
that can be found in multiple sources do not need to be documented).
But, if in doubt, document.

See you soon.
