NUR 290 - Finding Peer-reviewed journals

Using databases to locate peer-reviewed articles

Filtering Your Results

Because you are searching all library resources simultaneously, you will end up with many results.  In the example below, we searched for "Tupac".  

You now have a total of 816 results and not all of them are about the American artist Tupac Shakur.  You will need to use the left hand column to narrow your results.  You can narrow by Peer-review, date of publication range, material type such as a print book or an electronic article, or language, geography, etc.  This will give you more accurate results.
