Scope of coverage refers to the extent to which a source explores a topic. Consider time periods, geography or jurisdiction and coverage of related or narrower topics.
- Composition and Organization
Composition and Organization has to do with the ability of the information source to present it’s particular message in a coherent, logically sequential manner.
- Objectivity
Objectivity is the bias or opinion expressed when a writer interprets or analyze facts. Consider the use of persuasive language, the source’s presentation of other viewpoints, its reason for providing the information and advertising.
- Integrity
- Adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character
- The state of being whole, entire, or undiminished
- Comprehensiveness
- Of large scope; covering or involving much; inclusive: a comprehensive study.
- Comprehending mentally; having an extensive mental grasp.
- covering or providing broad protection against loss.
- Validity
Validity of some information has to do with the degree of obvious truthfulness which the information carries
- Uniqueness
As much as ‘uniqueness’ of a given piece of information is intuitive in meaning, it also significantly implies not only the originating point of the information but also the manner in which it is presented and thus the perception which it conjures. The essence of any piece of information we process consists to a large extent of those two elements.
- Timeliness
Timeliness refers to information that is current at the time of publication. Consider publication, creation and revision dates. Beware of Web site scripting that automatically reflects the current day’s date on a page.
- Reproducibility(utilized primarily when referring to instructive information)
Means that documented methods are capable of being used on the same data set to achieve a consistent result.
