The web site for the National Center for Education Statistics [http://nces.ed.gov/]
Genamics JournalSeek is the largest completely categorized database of freely available journal information available on the internet. The database presently contains more than 6000 titles. Journal information includes the description (aims and scope) journal abbreviation, journal homepage link, subject category and ISSN. Searching this information allows the rapid identification of potential journals to publish your research in, as well as allow you to find new journals of interest to your field. The database does not contain articles or abstracts. [http://genamics.com/journals/index.htm]
Annual Reviews [http://www.annualreviews.org/]
The mission of Annual Reviews is to provide systematic, periodic examinations
of scholarly advances in a number of fields of science through critical authoritative
reviews. The comprehensive critical review not only summarizes a topic but
also roots out errors of fact or concept and provokes discussion that will
lead to new research activity. The critical review is an essential part of
the scientific method.
Dissertations

Commercial Search Systems.
You can use these systems to search for information that in many cases they will then be willing to sell to you. You can, however, almost always find these materials through the library for free. When the library does not have the materials, you can use Interlibrary Loan. If you desperately need a reference, their price may not be unreasonable.INGENTA [http://www.ingenta.com/] The world's largest website for the search and delivery of research articles, ingenta.com offers you access to article summaries from over 20,000 publications linked to the full text of over 4,500 titles. Full text access is set by each of our 140 publisher partners, but typically individual subscribers, or individuals within institutions that subscribe, can access the full text of their publications for free. Non-subscribers can, for the majority of articles, pay-per-view choosing from electronic, fax or Ariel delivery.
Scirus [http://www.scirus.com/?h] Scirus is described as a powerful Internet search tool responding to the need for focused, comprehensive, and reliable overviews of relevant scientific information. Scirus distinguishes itself from existing search engines by concentrating on scientific content only and by searching both Web and membership sources. It enables scientists, students and anyone searching for scientific information to pinpoint data, locate university sites, and find reports and articles in an efficient manner. Full text article not available on the web can be ordered from [http://www.sciencedirect.com].
InfoTrieve -- [http://www4.infotrieve.com/] -- a source for many of the hard-to-find scholarly journals which were formerly available through the now-defunct UMI InfoStore. The base price is $10.75 per article, plus a copyright fee.
Northern Light Special Collection -- [http://www.northernlight.com/docs/specoll_help_overview.html] -- a source for full-text material, including some refereed journals. Most documents cost between $1.00 and $4.00.
