Got an assignment? Have you looked at the reading list to see lecturer recommendations? For most assignments, our Discovery Service will give you enough articles to work with. Watch this video showing how to search effectively and store useful results.
Sometimes you may want to try specific databases or journals - perhaps your lecturer has recommended particular sources as a good way of finding articles. This section lists key sources for English Language:
Scholarly, peer-reviewed journals are highly regarded as a source of academic information because they include expert opinions, research findings and references to follow up.
They are written by specialised professionals and academics (such as your lecturers) from around the world.
Finding, reading and referencing relevant journal articles will help you get the highest marks.
