Searching For Peer Reviewed Articles in Library Databases

Peer-Reviewed articles are included in OneSearch and most library databases. You can narrow your search to only include articles in peer-reviewed journals.

To limit to peer-reviewed articles in OneSearch select "Peer-reviewed Journals" from the Availability menu on the left. Other databases have similar filters.

 

Find Newspaper Articles

You can find many newspaper articles online, but they are often behind paywalls - you have to pay to read the articles. Use library databases to find the full-text of news articles and search for many articles at once.

Each database contains thousands of newspaper articles from newspapers around the country. These databases will help you find articles in many different newspapers.
