Fitzgerald, M. A. (1997). "Misinformation on the Internet: Applying Evaluation Skills to Online Information." Emergency Librarian 24(3): 9-14.
This is a very readable and accessible article which deals with the practical issues of critically using the internet. The paper is essentially divided into two sections. Section 1, provides a comprehensive (for an article) set of reasons why the internet contains misinformation. Section 2, develops practical methods for assessing web based information.
