In this paper some guidelines on how to evaluate sources are presented. The TOP criteria are introduced. TOP stands for Trustworthiness, Objectiveness and Precision. Trustworthiness is about the general reliability of the source (author, publisher and type of source). Objectiveness addresses the quality of the information found in the source. Finally, precision is about the relevance and the focus of the source.
