Scholarly sources

The tab Evaluating and Citing Sources leads to a very complete discussion but here are some quick tips for locating scholarly or peer reviewed resources:

What are scholarly or peer reviewed articles?

Professors often require students to find scholarly and peer reviewed articles. These items:

  • generally focus on scholarly research
  • are written by experts in the field or discipline
  • are critically reviewed  by other experts before publication
  • contain cited references to the information sources used

How do I find scholarly or peer reviewed articles?

  • Many of the library's databases (e.g. Academic Search Complete, Business Search Complete, and PsycInfo) contain scholarly or peer reviewed material and allow you to limit your search to include only these articles in the results. Use the advanced search feature in a database to find the option to limit to this type of search.
  • Check the Ulrich's research database to see if an article that you have found is in a peer reviewed or scholarly journal.
  • In some disciplines, differences between scholarly and trade publications are not crystal clear. Your teacher is the final arbiter of what is scholarly in a specific academic field of study.
