[ISLMA-Share] Credible Sources Lesson for Junior High?

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

In light of "fake news," I have decided to revamp some of what I am doing
with information literacy and source credibility, especially since the
generators of fake news and other unreliable sources are getting more
savvy.

If you subscribe to Scholastic's *New York Times Upfront* or *Junior
Scholastic*, there are some interesting bits of information about fake
news/ source credibility/ information literacy in the latest issue of those
publications.

Also *SLJ* published these articles, which I found to be helpful as well:
