Another option to find databases and articles is by reviewing subject resources. Please use the linked-list below:

CONCEPT of REFEREED/PEER REVEIW: 
Experts in a field (singly or several people) review an author's work by its written description for methods, plausibility, completeness, ethics, etc. to "weed-out" poorly documented/conceived research, implausible research, poorly constructed research, dishonest research,etc. The hard sciences may also apply a more stringent idea of peer-reviewed by including the idea of blind peer-review. This kind of peer review excludes author and other personal information from the review process. In this case the "editor" as a peer-reviewer is removed from the process.

Our library experts can help direct you to the answers you seek. If you've got a question you just can't find the answer to, or simply don't know where to begin, let us help you.
