Conduct Web searches ONLY AFTER you have found and used quality database articles. Warning: For high-quality articles, sites often ask you to pay for a subscription service. Don’t! The same articles are usually available for free in the Rice Library!

Web searches may provide timeliness. ◦ Google Scholar sources are fine, but often dated. ◦ Often you can trust org and edu sources. Remember,

the com extension is trying to sell you something! ◦ Wikipedia is not permitted.◦ Avoid sources without authors or dates.◦ Avoid biased sources.
