Example: citation + annotation (note):
summarizes contentsMcIvor, S.D. (1995). Aboriginal women’s rights as “existing rights”.
Canadian Woman Studies/Les Cahiers de la Femme 2/3, 34-38.
This article discusses recent constitutional legislation as it affects
the human rights of aboriginal women in Canada: the Constitution
Act (1982), its amendment in 1983, and amendments to the Indian
Act (1985). It also discusses the implications for aboriginal women
of the Supreme Court of Canada’s interpretation of the Constitution
Act in R. v. Sparrow (1991)

Example: citation + annotation (note): identifies the argument
McIvor, S.D. (1995). Aboriginal women’s rights as “existing rights”. Canadian
Woman Studies/Les Cahiers de la Femme 2/3, 34-38.
This article discusses recent constitutional legislation as it affects the
human rights of aboriginal women in Canada: the Constitution Act (1982),
its amendment in 1983, and amendments to the Indian Act (1985).This
legislation reverses prior laws that denied Indian status to aboriginal
women who married non-aboriginal men. On the basis of the Supreme
Court of Canada’s interpretation of the Constitution Act in R. v. Sparrow
(1991), McIvor argues that the Act recognizes fundamental human rights
& existing aboriginal rights, granting to aboriginal women full participation
in the aboriginal right to self-government.

Refresher on how to search for scholarly articles in the libraries’ e-resources
Sample search :
Recent & reliable research articles on images of women in the media and its effect on women

Journals: scholarly or general level?
Scholarly articles are documented (in-text
citations, footnotes or endnotes).
Most are peer reviewed = highest research quality; many are reports on original research done
General articles are not documented

“Peer reviewed” articles Also called “refereed” or “academic” or
“scholarly” Well researched, authoritative work Often write-ups on original research done A committee of scholars must approve
quality before the editor publishes
