Web Searching | CRAAPP Test

Tip--When searching Google for websites:

  • add "site:gov" to a search to find government websites, e.g.: loc.gov.
  • add "site:edu" to a search to find educational websites

Still need to determine if a website you found is reliable?  The CRAAPP Test will ask all the right questions to determine the reliability and usefulness of a site.

Start with the Basics:

IMDb

This is a commercial site that will simply inform you about the basic information of the film: date, actors, directors, basic plot, etc.

Wikipedia

This is a publicly editable encyclopedia which can have similar information as IMDb, plus, if the page is well done, will contain links to sources in the References section.
