The reliability of information is guaranteed by the community of the resource via citing respected sources of information for the given field. The hierarchy of sources differs according to field, but generally in university education there is a visible trend towards the use of scientific publications such as peer-reviewed articles in respected journals. Where it is possible, the use of primary sources heightens the quality of teaching and helps disseminate scientific knowledge from the academic environment among students and thus teaches them the basics of scientific work and methods. However, scientific knowledge is quickly changing, and therefore it is suitable to frequently update resources to include the most recent knowledge. Young professionals from the field can help in this if they engage in the creation of these resources during their studies and continue doing so in their subsequent professions. A good example of this is also WikiSkripta, in which this role is fulfilled by doctors preparing for their medical license examinations who have current knowledge in their fields.
