Usually, professors want you to be very selective in choosing web sites to make sure the information is accurate. Always look for the author or sponsor of a web site.

Use the Web

• to find current information
• to link to information provided by the library over the Internet
• to find information about companies
• to find information from all levels of government - federal to local
• to find both expert and popular opinions

Examples of Web Addresses
