Author

Look for an author who is reliable and credible—someone who knows their subject and someone you feel confident to include in your research.

Check the web site to make sure that:

  • the author's name is given
  • the author's qualifications, professional experience and publications are listed
  • the author's qualifications match the subject of the document
  • the author can be contacted via an email address or organisation address.
