Gen Stud Evaluation Criteria Links

A few posts have been made about confusion with the General Studies Assignment 1: 'Evaluation and Review of Recources'. My personal confusion came from the link in MyUni/Year Handbook ( http//www.library .adelaide.edu.au/search/web.html ) not working properly.

Stuart and Luke found that the following link below should be used instead (thanks guys!)
http://www.adelaide.edu.au/library/guide/web/webhelp.html#evaln

Earlier in the week I sent an email to Sue on this issue she confirmed that the links to the 'New Mexico State University' and 'University of California Los Angeles' Article review sites are
http://lib.nmsu.edu/instruction/eval.html
http://www.library.ucla.edu/biomed/tutorials/searchweb.html#evaluate

The first and second comments for this post should be the email I sent to Sue and her reply. I hope this helps anyone who was unsure how to layout their report.

My E-mail to Sue:

Dear Sue,

I have had some trouble locating the evaluation criteria sites for Assignment 1.
The hyperlink on the Assignment sheet (http//www.library.adelaide.edu.au/search/web.html) does not appear to do anything.

With a little searching about in google I came up with the following links:

New Mexico State University Library:
http://lib.nmsu.edu/instruction/eval.html

University of California Los Angeles College (UCLA) Library:
http://www.library.ucla.edu/biomed/tutorials/searchweb.html#evaluate

Are these sites what you had in mind?
If so would you like me to inform the rest of the class about these links? (through the blog).

Thankyou and sorry for the confusion.
Nicholas.

Sue Gardner's Reply:

Dear Nicholas
I am sorry that you were having trouble. If you go into Library, Search, web,
evaluation criteria it will give you links to UCLA & New Mexico State Library
guides. Yes- they are the sites which will provide useful information when
evaluating material.
If you would like to inform the students via blog by all means do so.
Cheers Sue
