Databases

Articles

Research articles are often on a specific research topic, and are usually written in technical terms.

They may be original research, or a retrospective look at what has been done in a field.

They may be peer-reviewed (or not), conference proceedings, or  journal articles.

To search for articles, use a DATABASE. 

A good, comprehensive search will search at least 2 or 3 databases since each database is slightly different and covers different resources.
