Gale Virtual Reference Library is a wonderful place to get scholarly articles. All of the information available is written by subject experts or scholars and are most likely peer reviewed. While having used Clark's database's in the past, I was surprised to see the wealth of information available through subject encyclopedias. Taking research notes can be very useful when finding your sources in the future. Keeping track of these sources can help save valuable time while writing a paper. It does not matter how you take these notes, via E-mail, flashdrive, or good old fashion paper. Furthermore, always remember to document all of the information accurately for finding and citing correctly.

Hi, Bryce:
ReplyDeleteYou are correct that GVRL is a scholarly source however, it is not peer reviewed. That is a specific review process for journals and we'll talk about it a bit later. GVRL is written for a general audience by scholars, peer reviewed articles are written for and by experts/scholars so the language is much more complex and technical, not something a casual reader will understand.
Cheers,
Andrea
