Peer-reviewed journals (also called refereed journals) are scholarly journals that publish articles only after they have passed through a strict review process.
There are two main ways to check if a journal is peer-reviewed:
- Search the NWTC Online Journal List. If the title shows up in the results list, click on it and look for the Peer Reviewed field at the bottom of the record.
- Consult the journal's official webpage.
And remember, if you use the Library Search box, a tool that allows you to search a majority of the Library's resources using one simple search box, you can limit your search to peer-reviewed articles by clicking in the box next to "Scholarly (Peer Reviewed)"!
And in the ProQuest databases, the "Peer reviewed" option is below the search box.
