In this video, I interview Professor Ellen Sexton, Associate Professor, Media Library of Lloyd Sealy Library at John Jay College. We discuss how to use Google, Google Scholar, Lexis-Nexus, the Worldwide Political Science Abstract Database, and John Jay One Search to find credible secondary research.
We discuss what "peer review" actually means, and how can you identify if a book/article is peer reviewed.
We also walk through how to evaluate sources online: how to assess if they are credible, if they are partisan or non-partisan, and/or if they should be used as background information, or be central to your literature review.

As Professor Sexton mentions at the 1:15:15 mark, there will be times where there is a book and/or book chapter you need that is not electronically available. If that happens, you can go to the JJC Library website and apply for a Interlibrary Loan (ILL). In order to do this, go to this link (https://jjay-cuny.illiad.oclc.org/ill...) login using your JJC username and pw, and fill out the form!
** Within the John Jay Library and CUNY Library database list, LexisNexis is listed as Nexis Uni
