What does scholarly mean? What does peer-reviewed mean?

Answer

Scholarly/Peer-Reviewed Articles are those that have been...

  • written by an Authoritative Source in a given field of study
  • and have been Reviewed by Other Scholars Before Publishing, usually in a peer-reviewed journal.


In most Databases, you can limit your search to only peer-reviewed materials by checking the Peer-Reviewed Box once you get your search results.

If you don't see this option, look for an option to Limit to Academic Journals, as peer-reviewed articles represent much of the content within academic journals.
