Mark your own trail
You want to revisit a source that you discovered previously.
***
Learning projects unfold unpredictably. Often you don’t recognize the value of a source until much later in the project. As the project unfolds, the source may be buried several levels into a website, or is otherwise invisible and intangible.
You can’t re-locate the source.

Therefore, leave signposts along your research trail.
