Peer Review

 

Peer Review Definition: The evaluation of scientific, academic, or professional work by others working in the same field

  • Typically written by professors, scholars, professional researchers or experts in the field
  • Before publication, articles are scrutinized by other experts in the same field (that's why it's called "peer review")
  • Peer-review articles are considered to be among the most authoritative and reliable sources you can choose for your research paper or project, because of the rigorous review process
  • Peer reviewed articles usually have a narrow focus, and often report the results of a research study. Often, they can provide excellent examples or case studies to support the arguments or explanations within your research paper

 

 

Catalogs and Databases

A library catalog allows you to search for items owned by a specific library, including books, movies, journals, magazines, music scores, government documents, and more.

A library database is an online searchable collection of information that libraries purchase access to. Some databases are discipline specific (PubMED), and some are general (Academic OneFile). Databases can contain articles, magazines, newspapers, images, streaming music, Ebooks, streaming videos and more.
