How do I find a journal article, and limit results to scholarly material?
Answer
- Go to the library's homepage.
- Click the NEW Article Search tab above the main search box. This takes you to the Ebsco search page and automatically tells the system to search all Ebsco collections for your keywords. This is usually more effective than trying to pick a specific database and only search there.
- When searching in Ebsco it is usually better to start with a simple search and then gradually apply filters to narrow down the results.
- At the Ebsco Discovery Service search page, you can enter search terms and click the Scholarly (Peer Reviewed) Journals button if you only want to see scholarly content. For additional search options, click Advanced Search.
