Peer Review
• Need to figure out if a journal is peer reviewed? Find out whether it is “Refereed” (another term for peer review) with Ulrich’s International Periodicals Directory database (found under “U” in our A-Z database list: http://library.pdx.edu/dofd/resources?letter=U )

Tips and Tricks: Scholarly Databases
• Separate out the scholarly stuff.
• Need it now? Full text. Remember: this may limit your results.
• Use database Subject Terms to your advantage.
• Search more than one database.
• The tricks used here can be used in almost any database!

Expand Your Search: Combing Through Bibliographies
Take the time to look through bibliographies of the best articles that you find!
This is the number one way scholars do research.
Look for patterns in the bibliographies: what resources or authors are listed the most?
![Page 23: SPED 510: Library Research Workshop](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814e6c550346895dbc08e8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Expand Your Search: Google ScholarTip: Go through the library homepage to be connected with PSU resources.
![Page 24: SPED 510: Library Research Workshop](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814e6c550346895dbc08e8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Be Complete: Use ILL!
If you find an article in a bibliography that you’d like to access, and we don’t have access, don’t despair! Use ILL (Interlibrary Loan)….

Remember:
• Stay flexible when you search!• Don’t give up on a search until looking through
several pages of results in several databases.• Use the subject headings the database offers
you.• Use the button to find the full-text of
material that isn’t full-text in the database.– More on finding full text
