Find Peer-reviewed Sources

Every scholarly database at Lynn University has an option to click a box for peer-reviewed sources. See the images below for each database type/vendor.

Note. Not every item in a journal that uses the peer-review process is an article. You will also find book reviews, letters to the editor, speeches, and more that are not peer-reviewed. 

Peer-reviewed check-box locations

Check the peer-reviewed box right below the main search box.

After you search for a topic/keyword in the Gale databases, the peer-reviewed check-box on the right will be visible in the "filter" area. Not all Gale databases offer this option.

 

The peer-reviewed checkbox is in the section called "Content Type" on the left. 

Find Permalinks

Almost every database available through Lynn University has a stable and permanent link, or "permalink," available for each article. This link will allow you and the professor to link directly to the article. Some professors require students to remove the DOI and add a permalink at the end of each reference list citation.

Note. The URL at the top of each page in a Lynn University database will break and will not link you back to the article.

Permalink Locations

To find the Permalink, look for the icon in the upper right of the article called "Copy URL." It will automatically copy the link for you.

To find the Permalink, click on the "Permalink" icon in the Tools menu (on the right) and copy the permalink.
