Juvenile Law Best Practices: Looking at the Evidence Base: Finding Scholarly Articles

SuperSearch

(Note: additional content available in other databases.)

 

SuperSearch provides access to many full-text online materials and all of the Drake libraries print holdings. For print materials, SuperSearch indicates whether Law or Cowles owns an item, its location and call number, and if it is checked out or on the shelf.

Search for journal articles from the main or advanced interface or by clicking the Journal Finder link. 

See the library's SuperSearch guide for instructions and tips, including how to find an article by citation.

Databases

Databases can help you find scholarly articles assessing different practices related to juvenile justice and child welfare.

Remember that using systematic review or meta-analysis as search terms might help you find these kinds of articles.

SuperSearch checks the Drake libraries catalog and many of our databases. Some databases of interest, which all have at least partial coverage in SuperSearch and can also be searched individually, are listed below. (Drake credentials are required to search off-campus.)
