Links for finding content-rich scholarly sources
Step 1: Search a good database of scholarly sources and pick one that looks especially promising.

Tip1: Enter "JSTOR" in the
Publication text box
Tip2: If you get lots of sources, use
the dropdown list to select more recent dates
Tip3: Look for sources that have been
cited several times--you can click the citations link to get a list of those
items
Source 2: Econ Lit: Here is the link from
Oxy's network:
