How do I find credible resources?!?!?!
The Internet is a great resource; however, answering this basic research question can be a HUGE challenge if you don't critically think about your resources.
Luckily, the MCU Library is here to help answer those specific questions. In fact, that is a large part of our daily mission; to provide access to, training for, and assistance with locating QUALITY information.
We have created an online guide to help our students better understand how to find credible resources, both online (hello, Google!) and using library resources (databases, books and eBooks). This is a good place to understand the questions you should try to answer about your resources.
In this guide, we've introduced a concept referred to as the "CRAAP Method." This is an easy to remember acronym that can help you identify a credible resource.
For more information, check out the "How To Find Credible Resources" library guide to get more assistance with finding credible information.
If you need more help, feel free to contact a librarian.
