Are there any special librarians on here willing to do a short (30 minute) virtual interview? The info will be used for a class paper.
By special librarian, I mean someone working in a specialized library as part of a larger organization (ex. medical/military/nonprofit/student org librarians, archivists, corporate intelligence, etc!)

Trying to find only research articles (or review essays) is an interesting puzzle.
As others have mentioned, checking with an academic librarian for a curated list, and conducting boolean searches, are great starting points.
Some journals publish literature reviews (we don't, specifically, though we do publish evidence summaries of specific research articles).
However, there are some really cool tools you can use to improve the chances of finding things!
ResearchRabbit and Connected Papers allow you to find work that is connected, in some way, to a work that you specify - could be same author, same field, cited by, etc.
2Dsearch can be helpful, especially for anyone not used to boolean searching.
Hello Fediverse! We're the Student Research Journal out of San Jose State's iSchool, and our whole team is excited to join the interoperable web!
We are a double-blind, peer-reviewed journal developed and led by current graduate students at San Jose State University's School of information. Our goal is threefold: to empower budding researchers, to publish relevant content of the highest quality, and to build an international community of student researchers.
The peer review process is rigorous, but it's also an amazing opportunity to get feedback on your work from experienced editors. We'll work with you to polish your manuscript into its best possible form.
I highly recommend emailing librarians when you assign their writing, if you are teaching. They don't always know that anyone reads their work. (Especially if it's proving to still be relevant and was written 13 years ago, and they've since retired!) #libraries#libraryscience#archives#SpecialCollections
