Ask a Librarian

On the library's homepage, the Primo search box provides one search engine for journal articles, books, videos and more. Once you enter your search (author, title, key word) into the box and click the search button, you can limit your search to Peer-reviewed Journals. You will also see additional opportunities to narrow your search, such as publication year.

Or, on the library's homepage, click on Databases. From there, you can select an appropriate database. You can view the list either as a whole or by subject categories. Each database description will tell you whether or not journal articles are included. Many journal article databases offer the option of limiting to Peer reviewed or Scholarly.

Communication Sciences and Disorders: Communication and Mass Media Complete, Medline, PsycINFO
