Answer
On the library homepage, click on FIND NOW under Find Articles, On the Find Articles & More page, you can select the database(s) that you need.
For this subject area, you will want to search in a database like:
- Research Library
- Academic Search Elite
- ProQuest Central
Each of these databases has a box to check for Peer Review. You may also need to check the Full Text box so that you can access the full article.
Examples of keyword searches are:
"controversial Supreme Court nominations"
"presidential nominations" AND "Supreme Court" AND controversy
When searching for more than one word, be sure to use quotes so that the database recognizes that this is a phrase.
