Evaluating Information

"The action of verifying facts, esp. in the context of journalism or other writing; the work involved in checking or establishing the facts of a matter". (Oxford English Dictionary)

Where do I fact check?

• Go to the primary source when possible. Using secondary sources like articles can perpetuate errors.
• Use your university library’s, your news organization’s, or your public library’s electronic and print resources.
• Search databases of news and journal articles, like LexisNexis or ScienceDirect, which aren’t accessible on the web, but are available in libraries.
• Contact an expert - but check them out
• Google scholar
• Google Books
• Open Data Portals
• Reference Books
• Find a stakeholder - someone who's interested in the same thing you are
