Suggested Websites
Anyone can publish a website, which is one of
the great things about the Internet. However, this also means that
there are no guarantees that information you find
online is accurate. There is a wealth of valuable information online,
as well as some that is false or misleading. One way to ensure that
you are finding quality information online is to view website from
reviewed collections--that is, lists of sites compiled
by educators, librarians, experts in a subject area, or other qualified
information professionals. These sites have typically been evaluated
for quality, currency, and accuracy.
