  • A News Literacy Workshop will be held at 7 p.m. Jan. 27.

While misinformation, disinformation and propaganda are not new phenomena, they seem to spread with greater ease and influence. Join Rutgers University Librarians Katie Elson Anderson and Leslin Charles for an interactive virtual workshop to gain helpful tools for seeing and understanding biases in news reporting, as well as adopt crucial strategies to identify how facts and non-facts are presented.
