Introduction

The Internet is truly an amazing source of information. Government agencies, organizations, and individuals from a wide range of backgrounds all over the world are finding the Internet a convenient place to publish information and make it freely available.  Keep in mind that as wonderful as the Internet is, there is no guarantee that the facts you find on the Internet are right, that the data is correct, or that the papers and reports published, cited or referenced have been reviewed for accuracy and quality.  Knowing where to look for information and how to evaluate information sources are survival skills for cyberspace.
