6. Confirm the default selection to the left of each search box in the dropdown box is the “AND.” Click Search. (If you did not click Peer Review before clicking search, scroll down the page to “Refine Results” located on the left side of the page. The “Peer Review” option is located under “Limit To.”)

The Library database citation tool may use information from electronic resources that is not yet standardized, so it is important to review the citation information carefully and update as needed to reflect the proper format.
