I was learning with my Chavrusa the other day from a source sheet, and he displayed some surprise when I reached for the Sefer where the particular cited source was referenced. Upon asking why I did that, I said that I preferred to use Sfarim as opposed to just sources photocopied onto a sheet. He then asked why, to which I did not have a good answer. This got me thinking about this question and I haven't thought of a good answer, so I'm turning to you guys:

Why is it that some people to read things out of physical Sfarim as opposed to photocopied source pages?

Thanks!

    Does this have anything to do with Judaism? Some people prefer paperbacks to Kindles.

  • Quite simply source sheets even photocopied dont usually have the full source. Usually only a single page of it.

If you look up the quoted source, you can see whether the entire relevant part was quoted and (if not) what wasn't.
