Pro: Articles found
in scholarly journals go through a "peer-review"
process. In other words, the articles are checked by professors
and other experts. The information is reliable and
based on extensive research. Scholarly journals take less
time to publish than books, but the peer-review process is lengthy.
Con: Scholarly journals include information
of academic interest, so they are not the best sources for general
interest topics. Because the peer-review process is time-consuming,
they do not include up-to-the minute news or current event information.
