Scholarly Sources
Scholarly journals mainly publish articles that describe original research and have an editorial process called peer-review where other experts in the field read the article, provide feedback, and make a recommendation about whether it should be published, or not. Not all articles in a peer-reviewed journal undergo this process, such as editorials and book reviews.
