One of several good library web pages that define what a peer reviewed journal is and how to identify one:
http://www.library.uiuc.edu/alx/peer.htm
So why are peer reviewed journals important? In summary, they represent the highest levels of academic scholarship. Using information found in peer reviewed journals will save you considerable time that would otherwise be spent scrutinizing the authority and accuracy of the source.
P.B.
