Check with your teacher before exploring the Internet for websites!
If you're not finding enough information AFTER you have already checked Britannica, Biography in Context, U.S. History in Context, and all the websites, you may Google your person responsibly using the CRAAP test!
Remember the CRAAP method when evaluating a website not on this LibGuide. If the website does not pass any part of CRAAP, try looking for a better website, or at least proceed with caution. For this project, Authority, Accuracy, and Purpose are the most important factors to consider--it's OK if a source is a little older as long as the info is correct! Keep track of your sources in case Mrs. Raffaelli needs to check them later!
