My first source is the Los Angeles Times News Article "Not Welcome sign: Europeans take steps to head off economic migrants". This sources gives a general overview of the current economic migration crisis happening in Europe, and how other European countries have responded. This article takes a more negative view of Europe's decision to halt migration, so it will be important for me to filter through this article to find the facts.

My second source is from the OECD, and is written by a member of the international migration division. This piece elaborates on the economic benefits/costs of economic migration. A summary of both the pros and cons of economic migration would keep my wikipedia additions unbiased. Further, this article provides data, charts, and graphs to show the fiscal impact of immigration. This provides supporting data for my writing.

My third source is from Settlement services International, and this sources distinguishes economic migrants from other migrants. Economic migrants are often confused with refugees in times of political unrest, and it will be important to identify differences between these terms on my Wikipedia entry. This page takes a very neutral stance, as it merely lists the definitions and compares/contrasts, so it will be easy for me to use this article in my Wikipedia addition.

My fourth source is a scholarly article about economic migration and its effect on overall satisfaction/well-being of migrants. This might be important to include because it shows the aftermath of economic migration. This article details past economic migration in Europe, North America, and Australia. Since this article is found on Google Scholar and is highly cited, it seems to be a reliable source for my article. The sociological effects of economic migration would add a new perspective to my page.

My fifth source is a book titled "International migration: trends, policies, and economic impact". What most interests me about this book in regards to my Wikipedia page is the economic impacts of migration. What might be notable is how economies change when economic migrants flow in: wages, aggregate price levels, and GDP. This book is found in the Bert Library so it will be an easily accessible and reliable source for my page.
