researching challenges

I am almost done with my research; I am, however, finding it difficult to find a scholarly source on the library database and on Worldcat.org. I was able to find one after a long time of rewording my topic; nevertheless, it was a challenge. I’m not sure if what I am searching for specifically, there aren’t any precise journals. I have used Google scholar and forced domains as well and I am not finding anything scholarly. I briefly tried CUNY+ and found nothing in CityTech, so I just left it alone. I am hoping to discuss this in class for more suggestions and guidance to accomplish exactly what I want with my paper.
