'''Academic Sources''' refers to a number of information sources that are subjected to some form of check for accuracy. Common examples include, but are not limited to the following:
* Peer reviewed journals
* Published books
* University/College lectures
* Interviews
* Government statistics/publications

The main idea behind academic sources is that there is a degree of accuracy and legitimacy which is not found in the following sources:
* Wikipedia (though this could be contested as there is a number of authorities that check various articles)
* Word-of-mouth
* Google (again, [http://scholar.google.com Google Scholar] provides an argument for the opposite)
