There are several ways to locate scholarly and peer-reviewed articles in the Hunt Library. Whether you're using EagleSearch or one of the library's research databases, very often these resources will provide ways to limit your results to both scholarly and peer-reviewed sources.
Once you have placed a search in EagleSearch, look on the left side of the results page for the list of filters. Under "Availability," select Peer-Reviewed (Scholarly). This will limit your results to those that are peer-reviewed.
