Evaluate a Web Resource

JSTOR is one of my favorite web resources. Compared to any other web resource it is reliable and can be used for just about any type of research. By using JSTOR it has helped me further my research and be confident with the sources that I choose from the web resource. I have personally used JSTOR plenty of times throughout my academic career so far and it has never failed me. One of my favorite tools about JSTOR is the fact that it has actual journals that I can browse through. I enjoy using journals as resources because it allows me to use a personal and professional resource for my work. The information on JSTOR is published by over five hundred publishers which also adds on to the success of the web resource because it provides an array of perspectives.

I picked this resource because I am a Latin American Caribbean Studies major and this would be of interest to me and further research.

I also picked the resource because I am also a Women Studies minor and this can come in handy when I am doing research for my classes.
