Source Material: Building Your ARC's Bibliography

ARC Source Material includes links to articles, reports, or other source material that you've saved or added related to your research. These sources are used to generate outputs in ARC, including its scenarios, decomposition, memos, and reports. With ARC, you decide what sources to keep, remove, or add.

Grow your source material by:


(1) Adding links or uploading documents manually





The Source Material section of an ARC has 3 ways to add content:

  1. Add New Link - allows you to enter a single URL
  2. Upload a document or PDF - you can upload your own files, documents, and PDF’s
  3. Bulk add URLs/Links - Similar to adding a single URL/link, this option allows you to paste in a collection of URLs


(2) Saving content from ARC Search Results





ARC will search the internet for content related to your ARC topic. Any relevant results it finds will appear in the Search Results section. You can then flag results as relevant or useful by clicking the “Add to Source Material” button.
