MEDIA AND

INFORMATION
RESOURCES
INDIGENOUS SOURCES

 The media source which is created and


controlled by a community is called an
indigenous source. Any kind of community
that holds and distributes information
within itself, whether geographic, interest
or community of identity, can be considered
as indigenous source
It is safe to assume that this media source
is native, local or originally produced in a
specific locale or region.
 Theinformation held by the indigenous
sources are unique and is culmination of
the heritage and experiences of the
specific community.
 Sinceindigenous sources are mostly oral,
they are commonly in the native tongue
and are recorded in different mediums
such as the traditional handwriting,
paintings or through songs, and folk arts.
They also means in which culture is
preserved, adapted, and handed down.

collection or the collection of an institution
of books and other printed and electronic
resources can be found.

information all over the world.
FOUR TYPES OF
LIBRARIES

research resources because it caters to
student researchers in colleges and
universities. This type of library is mostly
uses as source of information for
researches and other academic papers.

cater to small communities, towns,
districts, and cities. This library is
accessible to everyone. There are wide

most popular information resource form. It
is preferred choice against traditional
sources such as libraries and other medias
like television and radio. This is because of
easy accessibility. Internet can be accessed
anytime and anywhere even through a
mobile device.
1. Authorship

 Many materials that can be found in the


Internet does not have an author. If
authorship is unclear, the information is
most likely unreliable even if the
administrator of the website is listed, it is
still hard to tell whether the information is
taken from another source.
2. Type of Website
 The type of Website is also another thing
to consider in ensuring the reliability of
information. There are websites which are
run by a single administrator, some
sponsored by organizations, and some
websites are put up by unknown persons
or groups. Social media sites are a
different thing because it is a public
domain wherein members are free to post
things that interest them or opinions and
ideas that they want to convey.
3. Plagiarism check

 Itis very easy to use Internet sources


because in just one click, a search engine
will yield various materials. For whatever
reasons, many are tempted to copy and
paste. This is a dire case of plagiarism
because copying a material without citing
the source is a false claim of authorship.
