ERIC (OhioLINK version) This link opens in a new windowThe ERIC database is the world's largest source of education information, containing abstracts of documents and journal articles on education research and practice. The database covers descriptions and evaluations of programs, research reports and surveys, curriculum and teaching guides, instructional materials, position papers, and resource materials. In 1993, ERIC began indexing education-related books, including the output of major publishers. The OhioLINK OSearch interface is particularly useful when executing sophisticated searches that require identifying ERIC descriptors, combining multiple concepts, and/or applying limits however, OLinks will not find the full-text of ERIC documents before 1993.
