WEB SOURCES
Looking for information online? Find more success by using Google's Advanced Search.
BROWSE THE INTERNET
Remember to use the advanced option to add keywords and terms to narrow in on your search results. When doing your own search on the Internet,ask yourself the following questions everyone should ask about a web site found on the World Wide Web.
Is this site a credible site?
Information taken from the NASA website will be much more reliable than information taken from a fourth grade class web site. Examine the url (Universal Resource Locator). A url ending with .edu is usually the result of the research of a university unless the .edu is followed by a forward slash (/) and a tilde (~) which indicates the personal pages of a university employee. The site of a url ending in .org means the site is a not-for-profit institution. Such a site may be very credible or authoritative,such as the American Cancer Society. Be aware that some not-for-profit organizations have an agenda which may be hidden.
Does the site have an author?
If so, what are his or her credentials? Is the author an expert in the field, associated with a college or university or just a person with an opinion? This is not to say that you should not use a site which does not list an author, just look for other signs of authority or credibility.
REMEMBER!
When using a web site in your research, cite it! Do not cut, copy and paste the web site's information into your report. That is called plagiarism. Plagiarism is cheating. The Library/ Media Center has a "works cited" handout which contains the proper way of citing the many sources that might be used in a research paper.
