I Found an Article...Should I Use It?
Thursday, 8/24
10:00 - 10:30 AM (Pacific Standard Time)
Description: Locating information is only part of the research process. As a researcher, you are the one to determine what is and what is not a valid source of information. In this session, we will review types of information resources, peer-reviewed articles, how to read a scholarly article, and how to evaluate just the right resources for your needs.
