We in the library spare no expense in the quest to bring you top-quality electronic resources, and indeed the case of the two databases I am about to describe, no expense is in fact required.
ERIC (Education Resources Information Center) is an online digital library of education research and information sponsored by the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) of the U.S. Department of Education. ERIC contains over 1.2 million bibliographic records, and full-text where available. However don't expect over 1.2 million articles available as full-text. Although the primary emphasis is on education-related content, the size of ERIC means it contains a lot of material on the likes of social sciences and psychology

PubMed is a search engine for accessing MEDLINE, an online database of biomedical information compiled by the US National Library of Medicine. PubMed contains around 19 million records, most of which are citation only, but full-text material is increasingly becoming available, partly due to US legislation requiring inclusion into PubMed electronic copies of peer-reviewed research funded by the US National Institute of Health. Of interest to DBS students will be topics such as addiction research and psychology.
