Introduction

Source Evaluation Frameworks

There are many different types of tests, methods, and frameworks. None of these are yes/no, go/no go tests. They are meant to get you thinking about your source holistically. 

You can also mix and match criteria from different frameworks - nothing says you can only use one or even a whole one. Find what works best for you and what works for the type of source you are evaluating. Each method has its pros and cons.
