Peer-review is an important step in the publishing process for some journals. Articles submitted to peer-reviewed journals must be reviewed by at least one expert in the field, also known as “referees.” Articles that pass the peer-review process are published in the journal and considered peer-reviewed or refereed; those that don't pass are not published.

If you're searching for a scholarly or peer-reviewed article, we've compiled some tips for getting started in this video and in our Evaluating Resources subject guide.
