Spotting Fake News

Libraries work to ensure the best information on any given topic is accessible to all interested people. Sometimes it's hard to know which information and which sites can be trusted. Many libraries use LibGuides to gather together information for readers on any given topic which is generally considered reliable. But sometimes even LibGuides can be hard to find - especially for people just getting comfortable with a search engine such as Google. We hope to use some of the social media tools most easily recognized by search engines such as Google to get the word about these LibGuides posts out.

Today's test run is a LibGuide posting on spotting fake news from Indiana University. Click here to see what they have gathered together for you, and please feel free to share widely!
