How can I ensure what I am searching for is peer-reviewed?

Answer

Most databases have an option to limit search results so that only peer-review articles are found. Some subject specific databases that don’t have this option, Scopus for example, as they only contain peer-reviewed journal articles.

On Library Search you can limit to peer-reviewed articles, by clicking on the option under Refine Your Search in the filters in the panel to the left of the search result.
