Primo - The Library's Search Engine. Primo provides simple, one-stop searching for books, e-books, articles, videos, newspapers, and more. You can search many of the Library's databases directly from this interface. You can access self service features as well as save searches, create folders, and labels to organize your research. Please note that you will automatically sign into Primo if you have authenticated through another university system (Nest, Gmail, Workday, etc). That said, if you opt to go straight to Primo, then you will need to click on one of the sign in links and authenticate via university systems to access your account.
After your search, use Tweak your results, on the left menu, to limit to Peer-reviewed journals.
