To find articles from peer reviewed, scholarly journals, you will need to search one of the article databases. Try a database from our How to Get Started guide, or the A-Z Databases list.

Most databases will let you limit your search to retrieve only scholarly or peer-reviewed sources.  You can do that from the search results screen, or choose that limit before you search.

Look for a check box labeled Peer Reviewed or Scholarly (Peer Reviewed).

Different filter limit examples with a check box next to 'Peer Reviewed'
