NEW - LibrarySearch!
You can search for both books and articles in LibrarySearch, and there are filters, such as peer review for articles, that you can use. Take a look at our LibrarySearch tutorial to get acquainted with this new system!
There are a number of places to search for scholarly journal articles, and your topic will influence what tool you use. While you can use the filter for peer reviewed articles in LibrarySearch, there can be benefits to using tailored library databases, which group articles in similar fields. Here are three library databases that might be helpful. In each, you have the option to choose Advanced Search, which allows you to combine topics in your search (i.e. maternity NOT United States)
Google Scholar may also be a possibility, but use it very carefully. We lose the ability to have edited, verified collections with this product. To get the most full text, go to the Menu bar in the upper left, click on Settings, then click on Library Links. Choose University of Maine - Full Text.
Here are tools to search for news, legal sources, dissertations and theses, statistics, and cited reference searches.
