Databases

ERIC from EBSCOhost
ERIC (Educational Research Information Center), from the U.S. Department of Education, has provided access to the education literature since the 1960's. EBSCO's version provides links to some full text journal articles and also links to ERIC documents from 1990 to the present. You can also use the government's ERIC website.

Education Full Text from WilsonWeb
Though smaller than ERIC, Education Full Text can retrieve full text journal articles and article citations not found in ERIC due to better coverage of core education journals. Also covers book reviews back to 1995.

Professional Development Collection from EBSCOhost
A specialized collection of journal articles and pamphlets for professional educators that includes abstract and index coverage for 800 professional development titles and searchable full text for over 500 journals covering current topics in education.

Mental Measurements Yearbook from EBSCOhost
Describes over 2,000 commercially available tests in education, psychology, and other areas. Tests are described and evaluated for reliability, appropriate use, validity, etc. This is equivalent to the Burros' Mental Measurements Yearbook, Volume 9 (1985) to the present.
