Google Scholar
Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature across many disciplines and sources. Try out the advanced search screen by clicking on the downward arrow that appears to the right of the search box.
(Note: To maximize access to Lehigh resources, when in Google Scholar, go to Settings, then Library links, then type in Lehigh University. If we do not subscribe to an article, this setting will enable a Lehigh Link to obtain the article via interlibrary loan.)

There are other databases (scroll down) you can consult for your assignments.

Academic Search Complete covers both popular and scholarly literature. To limit to scholarly articles, find the place where you can limit to "Scholarly (Peer Reviewed) Journals."
