A
solution for online searching has arrived for students
at Buffalo State College. E. H. Butler Library www.buffalostate.edu/library/ and
Ebsco Publishing have developed Peer Reviewed Articles
EZ, a program designed to assist students in online searching
for articles. The articles now have easier links to bigger
subjects and more search results.
“Peer
reviewed articles are articles taken from scholarly journals
and put through a special review process,” said a
reference librarian Donna Davidoff. “These articles
have been reviewed or juried by experts from specific fields.”
To
get started, click on the Peer Reviewed Articles EZ button
under the Find Articles link on the library’s web
page and begin searching.
Albert
Riess, riessaf@buffalostate.edu the
electronic database librarian for Buffalo State College,
is in charge of the peer reviewed articles and the archives
at the library.
“We have twin databases, one for scholarly
journals and one for peer reviewed articles. This is for
students who come in and tell us that their teacher wanted
them to look something up, but they are not sure where
to start. We bring them to the computer and show them this
program to get them started.” said Riess.
