4. Use and/or do something with that information

• Read, watch, learn from the information you have found.
• Organize your information - taking notes, or using an outline is always a good idea.
• Present your information, usually in the form of a report, essay, paper, presentation, etc.
• If your information need was a personal one, make that decision, or make that purchase!
