Oxford Bibliographies Online help you identify some of the most important and influential scholarship across a variety of academic disciplines.
Use the 'Browse by Subject' to see an alphabetical list of entries within each subject area. The basic search at the top will search all subjects, or use the Advanced Search to create a custom search within one or more subject areas.
Use the 'Journals A-Z' option in the top menu to select a specific academic field and look at the current or past volumes. Or search across all annual reviews to help find multidisciplinary research from various journals.
If you find a review that seems on point, but rather dated (10 years or so), try searching for it (or any of the works cited) in Google Scholar. Then follow the “cited by” links to discover something more recent.
Oxford Handbooks Online provides introductions to topics and critical surveys of the current state of scholarship in specific fields.
Using the 'Subject' drop-down menu, Anthropology (in the Social Sciences) Psychology (in the Sciences) are two of the subject areas. Once you click on the subject, there are too many articles for browsing, so you can try searching for a general topic idea by using the 'Modify Your Search' in the left-column, and entering a search word.
Or, search across all handbooks and use the filters to narrow down the results.
Web of Science The social sciences (and humanities) are also well-represented in this multidisciplinary database of over 20,000 journals.
Web of Science can be a a powerful tool to uncovering literature reviews. A keyword topic search in Web of Science, much like HOLLIS, will return results that you can then sift through using a variety of left-side filter categories. Under document type, look for the "Review" option.
