Open access

Open Access (OA) is the practice of providing unristricted access via the internet to peer reviewed scholarly journal articles.

Finding electronic journals

Scholarly or academic journals contain up-to-date, specific and often in-depth information. It is even better to use peer-reviewed journals for research. The peer-reviewed journal articles have been critiqued by scholars/experts in the same field to ensure that they reflect solid scholarship and high academic standards.
