ERIC stands for the Educational Resources Information Center and is a database produced by the US Department of Education. It contains thousands of published and unpublished sources (including dissertations and conference proceedings) covering education and educational research from 1966 to present.

To access ERIC, click on "Find a Database" on the Library Homepage, then select "E," then scroll down to "ERIC (at EBSCOhost)" on the list. This will open an EBSCO search page for the ERIC database.

Items that are available through ERIC (at EBSCOhost) will be available in one or more of the following ways:

• Full-text PDF in ERIC - This can be downloaded to your device.

• Full Text from ERIC - This link will take you to the item on the ERIC website.

Some Items may not be available through ERIC, but may be accessed through Find It or Interlibrary Loan.

Selecting the "Use Find It to locate full text and other services for this resource" option will direct you to the item page in GIL Find. Here you will be shown information about accessing the item elsewhere.
