The purpose of this guide is to help teach students in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields about how information in these fields works.
- How is scientific information shared, and with whom?
- What formats do different types of scientific information take?
- How can we strategically use library databases and open-web resources to find the information we're looking for?
- What review processes do different types of information undergo in order to be considered trustworthy?
- What does "trustworthy" even mean in this context?
All of these questions and more are addressed in the guide.
