Note that these screenshots refer to NUsearch, our library catalog, but the same techniques apply to any database you're using. Questions? Ask Becca!  

1. Conduct a search for a topic you're interested in. For my sample topic, my user is an amputee who has had a hemipelvectomy. I can do a keyword search in NUsearch for information about my topic.

2. When I click on the magnifying glass, my search results are displayed. Note that I have roughly 1,500 results in many different formats.

3. To narrow to just peer-reviewed journal articles, I can click on the Peer-reviewed Journals filter on the left-hand side of the screen.

4. Once I activate this filter, I have fewer resources. Note that only articles are displayed now.
