Education Resources Information Center (ERIC)


The Education Resources Information Center (ERIC) is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education and produces a wealth of journals and literature on a wide range of educational topics. ERIC used to sponsor clearinghouses on topics like Math and Science, Elementary and Early Childhood Education, Disabilities and Gifted Education, and more. These have lost their funding, although many of the host organizations are continuing in some form.

To learn how to access articles or to be referred to a specific contact go to www.eric.ed.gov or 800-LET-ERIC.
