Abstract
This paper seeks to determine the choice of information source among FCMS nursing interns using the three-dimensional evaluation method namely; reliability, accessibly and purpose between the traditional and digital resources. Appropriate cross tabulations were used in the study to present the results using actual numbers, percentages and means. The results showed that there is no significant difference on the perception among respondents with regard to reliability, accessibility and purpose of the traditional and digital sources of information albeit that digital resource has just been recently introduced in the kingdom. Furthermore, the study also presented the respondent’s perception on the relationship of the two sources of information, specifically books and the Internet. The respondents mostly answered “highly accepted” as indicated by the high averages with a mean score nearly 5.

Summary
We live in an information age where the amount of information available is so incredibly large that we cannot know everything about it.

You should possess the skills needed on where you find information but as well as which of these informations you should accept. You may feel overwhelmed with the extremities of the information and may be tempted to accept what you find. It is necessary to evaluate the information effectively. The key to the success of this digital medium is its ability to support the exchange of information regarding face-to-face communication
