How do you determine if a source of information is trustworthy?

Reassurance of validity was vested in the same entities as 2008 with increased percentages of selectors (see table 5). Eighty-eight percent of the students selected instructor as the primary source of information trustworthiness an increase of 3%. Librarians gained 10 points. And publishers increased 3%. As noted in the 2008 analysis, the selection of publishers suggests awareness of peer review processes, which in turn is an indication of instruction by librarians and faculty in the use of information resources.

There is a disjuncture in the number of students who placed trust in Google as a trustworthy resource (54% in the last question), the trust they assign to Google in this question (12%) comparing it to faculty and librarians, and the number who report using it as a resource for assignments (85%). The disjuncture can be understood as duplicitous. Or, it can be understood as student awareness of the need for information integrity, an expression of trust in the knowledge of faculty and librarians, and confidence that they know how to effectively use Google.
