For an upcoming workshop, I am putting together a checklist that helps legal professionals determine when they should include Internet in the scope of information resources likely to address a research issue. I have come up with the recommendations below. Does anyone have anything to add?
--Federal, state, or foreign government documents --Seeking facts like dictionary definitions, zip code information, or currency exchange rates --Corporate information, especially public or technology-related companies --Issue concerns/interests trade associations or advocacy organizations --Issue concerns technology or medicine
I appreciate all suggestions. Thanks.
