The Library has tons of scholarly (also known as "academic") journal articles. The easiest way to find them is to use the "Articles" tab in our homepage search box and enter your keywords.
For example, type "texting and driving" in the search box to get a list of articles that match a search for that topic.
Keep in mind that the results will be all kinds of articles, so you'll need to limit your search to academic journals. There's a filter option for "Source Types" on the left-hand side of the results page that will allow you to limit your search to academic journals.
