How is a library database different from a website?

 * ~ 1. Library databases ||~  ||~ 2. Web sites ||
 * Library databases get their information from professionals or experts in the field. ||  || Web sites can be written by anyone regardless of expertise. ||
 * Library databases contain published works where facts are checked. ||  || Web site content is not necessarily checked by an expert. ||
 * Library databases are easy to cite in a bibliography and may create the citation for you. ||  || Web sites often don’t provide the information necessary to create a complete citation. ||
 * Library databases can help you narrow your topic or suggest related subjects. ||  || Web sites often aren’t organized to support student research needs. ||
 * Library databases are updated frequently and include the date of publication. ||  || Web sites may not indicate when a page is updated. ||
