Presenter(s): Matthew Chase, Librarian (mchase@usa.edu)
This workshop will explore the question: How reliable are internet search engines and scholarly databases in locating and accessing the evidence-based information? We will discuss how systemic bias manifests in scholarly databases and internet search engines, examine how information privilege affects evidence-based practice and research, and determine strategies for addressing information privilege and systemic bias.
This event is part of the Library's Contexts event series, a cocurricular library program supporting the University community’s research practices through the lens of intersectionality and equity.
