Other Ways of Evaluating Sources

You don’t have to use CRAAP or ABCD if you have another method that you prefer for evaluating sources. What matters is that you take a critical look at the source you are considering using for your assignment and make sure that you feel confident that it is appropriate and high quality.

If you aren’t sure about the quality or appropriateness of a source, ask a librarian or a professor for help! To find out which librarian works with the subject you’re researching, go to this page.
