Description
With the glut of information out there and everyone connected via social media, it's more important than ever to be a conscientious, responsible digital citizen. This session will show you the earmarks of "fake news" and help you to identify solid, reputable resources to inform yourself and share with others. Then, learn how to de-escalate Internet conflicts with a method distilled from best practices and personal experience. We all have to do our part to make the Web a pleasant, safe, and useful place to spend our time- let the library show you where to start!
