The CRAAP Method: Criteria for Evaluating Websites

Before you consider using information you found on a website, you must evaluate the website based on its:
  • Currency: The timeliness of the information
  • Relevance: The importance of the information for your needs
  • Authority: The source of the information
  • Accuracy: The reliability, truthfulness, and correctness of the content
  • Purpose: The reason the information exists

You must give a CRAAP about the information you find online!
