It is one thing to find information, but you do need to make sure that what you find is appropriate, scholarly, and relevant. This section will introduce you to:

• Evaluating Information - using the CRAP Test to evaluate information sources, and evaluating web resources
• Peer Review - information about what peer review means and how you can tell if something is peer reviewed.
• Evaluating Search Results for Relevance - using the brief article record, full record, and abstract.

In SPH516, you might need to take the process of critical evaluation further than this. For more information, go to the Critical Evaluation page of the Systematic and Systematic-like Reviews guide.
