Getting Started with Research

This guide contains select print and electronic resources for scientific topics, in particular peer-reviewed scholarly sources rather than popular or secondary sources.

  • Know the difference between web and library resources and popular (secondary) and scholarly (primary) sources
  • Understand the sources for scholarly resources at Cornell University Library
  • Search article databases and retrieve peer-reviewed scholarly articles easily
