요약	Multi-source document collection is a data-gathering strategy in which researchers systematically locate, retrieve, and compare documents drawn from two or more independent sources — such as government archives, institutional records, media outlets, organisational reports, or digital repositories. By assembling evidence from diverse provenance, researchers can triangulate findings, detect discrepancies, and build a richer, more credible picture of the phenomenon under study than any single documentary source can provide.	Content analysis is a systematic research technique for reducing text, visual, or media material into coded categories so that patterns can be counted, compared, and interpreted. Formalised by Klaus Krippendorff in his widely cited methodology textbook (latest edition 2018), the method sits at the boundary of qualitative and quantitative inquiry: it imposes structured, replicable coding on inherently meaning-laden material.
