How do you determine if a source is scholarly and authoritative? Ask yourself... - Who is the author? Is the author a credentialed expert on the subject?  - Who is the publisher? Is the publishing company a recognized academic publisher?  Is the journal "peer reviewed," meaning other experts have evaluated the article before publishing?  - Cite your sources using Turabian/ Chicago citation style, the style preferred by your professor. Citing your sources ensure that you give appropriate legal and ethical credit for the creative, intellectual property of another. ## Research Tips - **Citation help needed? **Try **[OWL](https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/resources.html)**[ (Online Writing Lab)](https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/resources.html) for[** Chicago/Turabian**](https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/chicago_manual_17th_edition/cmos_formatting_and_style_guide/chicago_manual_of_style_17th_edition.html), [**MLA**](https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/mla_style/mla_style_introduction.html), and** [APA](https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_style_introduction.html)** styling formats.  - **Search by subject:** Once you have located one item in the catalog, you can click on the search term within the record to find other items on the same or similar subjects. Once you have located a helpful source, additional potential sources may be found in the item's bibliography. - **Can't find what you need in the PHC collection?** If you are unable to locate an item in the PHC collection, you may request resources through Interlibrary loan.
