ERIC Clearinghouse Resource Availability
The availability of the former clearinghouse information resources continues to evolve. In January 2005 I constructed a table of current information.
ERIC Clearinghouses Make Plans
for the Future
Searching ERIC database: As many of you know several interfaces to the ERIC database are available via the web. The Department of Education Web Page no longer offers the handy comparison chart with info on 4 database choices. However, so far the database access is still available. I grabbed a copy of the chart, thanks to the Wayback Machine.
The Clearinghouses are now closed, the following table list web sites that are hosting the content of the former Clearinghouse sites. Adjunct and Affiliate Clearinghouses are listed separately.

In addition, there are plans to continue developing and maintaining the Exceptional Child Education Resources (ECER) database, which is the world's most comprehensive reference to the published professional literature in special education, gifted education, and related services. In light of a "downsized" ERIC, ECER will provide a much-needed alternative in special and gifted education research and resources. Council for Exceptional Children |
