How do we discriminate between true, false, and misleading information in scholarly publishing? How do we decide which sources to trust and which ones to question – and how much implicit trust should we place in any source? As librarians, how do we balance the need to discriminate with the need to present a full spectrum of viewpoints? As editors or publishers, how do we negotiate the difference between legitimate minority views and faulty scholarship? This workshop will address these and related questions, suggesting both mindset adjustments and concrete strategies for consumers, publishers, and brokers of access to scholarly and scientific publications.
