If you are looking for general information about a topic, try an ENCYCLOPEDIA.
What is an encyclopedia?
An encyclopedia covers general facts about a number of topics. It's a great place to start finding out information about topics. You may remember those big sets of encyclopedias from your elementary school library. Now, we prefer online encyclopedias because they are easier to update than a print book.
What encyclopedia should I use?
There are many, often paid for with advertising. Here is an ad-free version of Britannica where you can find articles, links to videos, and more!
Isn't Wikipedia an encyclopedia?
Sort of, but it isn't created by experts. It's a collaborative website that is authored by anyone who wants to contribute. Mr. Keniston was one of those authors who got thrown off Wikipedia because a superuser didn't like his username. Britannica hires experts; Wikipedia allows anyone to change entries.
Wait, can't I just use Google?
Google is just one of many search tools that scrape whatever it finds from "free" sites on the internet. A "free" site doesn't charge you money to visit it. Most "free" websites are owned by companies to promote their businesses. Other free sites are created by individuals who may have an unusual point of view. So it is important to analyze any results you get from using a search engine. When you use an authoritative encyclopedia like Britannica, you know that experts did the research for you, so you can trust the articles and the information you find.
