Searching for scholarly and/or peer-reviewed journals in Academic Search
Premier is a fairly simple process. As a sample search, let’s type in the phrase
“immigration reform.” Then, after scrolling down the search page, we’ll see
the “Scholarly (Peer-reviewed) Journals” box. Select that box to retrieve only
scholarly and /or peer-reviewed articles and hit the “Search” button.
• Here on the Results page, the database has retrieved 618
scholarly and/or peer-reviewed articles on the topic, immigration
reform. This process for finding scholarly or peer-reviewed
journals will work in all of the EBSCO databases.
