Answer
If you have the title of the journal, then you can determine if it is scholarly or academic by searching the Ulrichsweb database:

Go to the Database Pages under the letter "U"to find Ulrichsweb: |
 |
|
|
|
|
Look up your journal in Ulrichsweb; Type in the title, and click the green search icon. |
 |
|
|
|
| On the results page, look over the choices for the appropriate title; here we choose the online version of this journal. Click on the title of the journal to see the detailed contents. |  |
|
|
|
| Under the Content Type heading look for the notation Academic/Scholarly, which indicates whether or not it is scholarly or academic. |  |
