RESEARCH RECORD
A record of Jon Seligman’s article in volume 56, published in 2007: bibliographic identity and reading scope.
This record provides bibliographic details and independent reading notes. The full study was written by the authors listed in the publication details; the link leads to its source.
Jon Seligman’s paper concerns observations and events associated with work in the area known as Solomon’s Stables on the Temple Mount during 1999-2001. The original title is retained in the bibliographic details so readers can identify the work and the period it documents. 1.
Distinguish what was documented during the work, how the author interprets that record and the wider framework of the discussion. Photographs, plans and sections provide different kinds of information. A subject that also appears in public debate calls for careful attention to the connection between each claim and its supporting source.
These notes draw on the publication details and abstract. They offer questions for reading; the full discussion and documentation remain in the original study. The library’s research-reading guide explains how to follow the distinction between an observation and a conclusion.
