The same holds for Internet pages. There's no filter on the Internet. Be skeptical and apply critical thinking to what you find. After that, I ask my students to look at and evaluate a list of Internet sites. These are part of the handouts I give each class.
Some handouts are specific to a class in history, education, or nursing, for example.
I use searches like this to illustrate some of the search engine commands that are very useful when using search engines. The Internet Resources Collection , a directory of sites chosen and organized under the direction of our Reference Coordinator, Norman Elsner. Searching the Internet , a page of shortcuts to directories , search engines , meta-search sites , specialty engines , and tutorials . Databases , a page listing the free and paid databases , including periodical indexes , to which the UNA libraries subscribe. Do try this at home.
