ERIC was massively reorganized and most of the content at the former ERIC sites (including the ERIC Digests) found new homes. This site is striving to make it easy to find ERIC Digests that have been produced prior to the end of the former ERIC system. (For information on these changes, see <a href="http://www.lib.msu.edu/corby/education/doe.htm"><span style="color: blue">http://www.lib.msu.edu/corby/education/doe.htm</span></a>.) The Federal ERIC site no longer maintains the ERIC Digests separately and has mixed them into the ERIC database as hard to use .PDF files which are not found by the major search engines. <a href="http://www.ericdigests.org/links.html"><span style="color: blue">More links</span></a>. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: blue; font-family: "lucida sans""> <p align="left"></p></span></p><p dir="ltr" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: blue; font-family: "lucida sans"; mso-bidi-font-family: arial">Copyright</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: blue; font-family: "lucida sans""> <p align="left"></p></span></p><p dir="ltr" align="left"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: blue; font-family: "lucida sans"; mso-bidi-font-family: arial">ERIC Digests are in the public domain and may be freely reproduced and disseminated in any format.
