The easiest way to find peer-reviewed sources is by using the library's @LL Search to help filter your results. By choosing the Advanced Search option, you are given the opportunity to pre-select any filters; to limit your results to peer-reviewed sources, click on the Peer Reviewed Journals box within Search Options, as indicated in the screenshot below.

You can also use limiters after a search has already been made. On the left-hand side of your search results page, you will find a number of options for refining your results.
