Google Web Search

Search Google for your topic keywords. Look for government, education, and/or organization webpages as well as news/magazine publications. Do not use Wikipedia as your website source as the content cannot be verified.

Before using information found on a webpage, consider the following criteria to evaluate its credibility.

  • Who is the author?
  • What are his/her qualifications?
  • Why was the website created?
  • When was it last updated?
  • How reliable is the information?

Google Search Tips

To limit your search results to a specific domain (i.e. government, education, or organizations) include the following search string in the Google search box:

  • site:.gov (breast cancer treatment and site:.gov)
  • site:.edu (breast cancer treatment and site:.edu)
  • site:.org (breast cancer treatment and site:.org)

To limit your search results to newspaper and/or magazine publications perform a Google search and select News from the top header.
