Journals and articles written by academics or experts are an excellent source of information. Journals are usually published monthly or quarterly, and contain a selection of articles providing details of recent research. Often they will also contain reviews of relevant books. They are usually published more quickly than books, and so are often more up to date.
To access content of journals, most publishers require a subscription. There are, however, some journals which you can freely access in full text via the internet without paying a subscription fee.
You can see an example of a journal article here:
Potter, Christopher Thomas. "Motorcycle Clubs in Britain During the Interwar Period, 1919 ? 1939: Their Social and Cultural Importance". International Journal of Motorcycle Studies. 2005. 1 (1)
