Introduction

Self-Test

The Answer:
False. 

Carlos has done a search in an article database and found 13 articles on his topic. He should not just go home and write his paper now using all 13 of these articles in his paper. He should first determine whether the articles closely match his information needs and whether the articles are in scholarly or popular periodicals. He should also be ready to format his citations to these articles using a recognized citation style (APA or MLA).
