5.4 Evaluation Summary Exercise
The University of Wyoming Library’s Tutorial for Information Power (TIP)
does a great job of summing up all the evaluation points to consider when choosing

courtesy of Meriam Library, California State University, Chico) to help us remember
the criteria: Currency, Relevance, Authority, Accuracy, Purpose.
