The tutorials on this page describe what peer reviewed articles are, how to use library resources to locate them, and how to evaluate sources to determine if they are scholarly.
For each topic, you will see a video and several links below it. The video and slides links have the same information, displayed in different ways--choose the one that works best for you.
Some topics also have handouts--these are quick tip sheets or guides that can be saved or printed out for reference.
