A major challenge with searching for information on the Internet is determining what is useful and what is not.

Not all web sites are truthful or reliable.

• Anyone can put together a legitimate looking site.
• Web pages are not regulated or monitored.
• Don't be so ready to "cut and paste" what you find into your research paper.

Rules about using free websites:

1. Use library resources FIRST in your research!
2. The Internet is another place to search for information on a reseach topic.
3. The Internet should not be the first place you go!
4. The Internet can be very useful, if used wisely.
5. Be sparing in using what you find on the Internet for a paper.
