Read the information and guidelines regarding finding information in Libraries in your online textbook. Read also the Purdue OWL guides to Conducting Research (https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/conducting_research/index.html and following).

Keep in mind that experts estimate that as much as 80% of what is available online is junk. For most of you, the problem is not finding information, but rather finding trustworthy information. As you research any topic, you must consider how to judge the information you find.

Sometimes, how you conduct a search helps you judge what you find. A general web search (google, bing, ask.com, etc.) will generally have a mix of trustworthy sources and junk, and you will need to find a way to differentiate among them. Check out Evaluating Sources of Information on the Purdue OWL (https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/conducting_research/evaluating_sources_of_information/index.html ). Look also at the OWL information regarding Searching Online (https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/conducting_research/searching_online/index.html and following).

Often, the only way to establish the trustworthiness of a source is to find and refer to the credentials of the source. Determining whether the information comes from a reliable source is essential in deciding on the trustworthiness of the information. Using edited scholarly sources, the kinds of things you would access through library databases rather than general web searches such as google, can be very helpful in finding reliable, credentialed resources.

You will need to determine what criteria you will use to judge your research sources. The information on the OWL can be very helpful in guiding you through determining what criteria are most applicable. Be sure you read through all the OWL offers on doing research before you proceed.
