abstract = "Education Source is an EBSCO database. It offers the user access to thousands of full-text journals and conference papers, millions of citations, thousands of abstracts, and hundreds of videos. These various print and media resources cover a wide variety of educational topics, including
educational policy, pedagogy, communication and information in education, educational grants, and education economics, among many others.This database can be viewed in one of 32 languages. Documents can be found here using either a basic or advanced search, both of which are easily understandable
and useable. Although the two searches have their own strengths and weaknesses, both can produce useful results. Pricing for this resource is determined by FTE, consortium agreements/buying groups, other EBSCO database subscriptions, and a variety of other factors. All of these can lead to
considerable price variability. The licensing agreement for this database is the same as for all EBSCO resources, and its composition is standard and unre-markable (though it is a bit long, at nine pages). Content quality and quantity in this database is excellent and will certainly be of
use to those researching education and related topics. However, its primary audience will be students and faculty in colleges and universities, and most probably only those with education programs, schools, or departments. It will be of only secondary use to others, and possibly too expensive
for them.",
