Details

Social media users are frequently told that platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter/X are full of purposeful or accidental lies or misinformation. However, it can be difficult to navigate the information coming across your feed, especially when you're looking for entertainment or connection. Learn to confront your media assumptions and find ways to investigate the information you come across through this interactive workshop with librarians Olivia Hobbs and Erin Smith.
