General Tips
- Take everything you find with a grain of salt - Remember the saying "don't believe everything you hear?" Well reading something on a web page is the same thing. Take a close look at where the information is coming from. Is it a reliable source? Is there an author name or is it anonymous? Is it opinion or fact?

- Verify - The more times you come across the same information, the more it validates it. If you find a specific date on a web page make sure to look up that date in another source. Don't take someone's word for it.

- Don't rely solely on the web - There is a lot of information to be found on the internet but it doesn't replace the books and periodicals in a library. Use all the resources available to you.
