Information is everywhere, but not all of it is the right kind of information for scholarly research. It is important to understand the variety of information sources available to you and to be able to select the best resources as you do your research.

The Schurz Librarians have prepared several guides to assist you in making good information choices:

Critical Thinking and Evaluating Sources

Popular Magazines vs. Scholarly Journals

Internet Basics
