What is ERIC?

The Education Resources Information Center is an online digital library of education research and information. ERIC is sponsored by the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) of the U.S. Department of Education. ERIC provides ready access to education literature to support the use of educational research and information to improve practice in learning, teaching, educational decision-making, and research. The ERIC database is the world's largest and most frequently used education database, composed of more than 1.3 million bibliographic records spanning 1966 to the present.
