How do I find a scholarly article?
Answer
Most of the Library databases will have a filter for you to limit your results to Scholarly Articles and/or Peer-Reviewed materials. Once you’ve done a search, look through the filters on the results page for words like:
- Scholarly
- Peer Reviewed
- Journal Article or Article
