Michael Scott on Wikipedia
"Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject, so you know you are getting the best possible information. "
How can Wikipedia help you?
Aide with gathering background information on a topic: Through the references you can connect to a wide variety of information on the subject. These resources range from newspaper articles, books and online publications. These could be useful resources for your assignment and also inform you of the reliability of the article you are reading on Wikipedia.
Generate search terms: Wikipedia can help you put together a list of alternative search terms you could use when searching the Library or a database. Review the article to see if any terms or words jump out as being relevant and write them down for use on the Library website or databases.
