Internet jako zdroj relevantních a kvalitních informací

Autor: Karen Blakeman, RBA Information Services, Velká Británie

Plný text

Abstrakt:

Anyone and everyone can publish on the Internet if they so wish. Not all, though, are qualified or knowledgeable in their chosen subject and some even publish deliberately misleading information. Web 2.0 technologies such as blogs and wikis can add to the confusion. Separating fact from fiction, and scrutinising the credentials of an author are now an essential part of any research. One does not have to pay for reliable information and there are many good quality free resources. Being able to quickly recognise these is a key skill that all researchers must acquire. This presentation will look at the steps one can take to assess the quality of resources and their trustworthiness, and the weak and strong features of both priced and free information on the Internet.
