So I just got hired...

To teach amongst other classes "Searching and Evaluating Electronic Information" at a local college...it got me to thinking about the challenges of evaluating information. As a librarian at one time I felt very comfortable saying this or that was a reputable source...at this point I don't know if I can be sure...with major national newspapers having issues with Plagiarism, famous authors being cited for plagiarism, people plagiarizing other opinions and passing them off as truth (which inadvertently makes something truth), I think this might be a more difficult class than I thought...
