Electronic Reference Materials
Reference materials provide general information regarding a process or a definition of a term, or background information on a subject. The Education Library holds its reference collection on the first floor, next to the Reference/Consultation Desk.
Along with a growing and up-to-date print reference collection, the UF Libraries provides some online reference materials for education research. Below are selected online reference materials for general education, teaching, counselor education, educational psychology, sociology, special education, language and literacy, educational technology, mathematics and science education, education law, and special topics.
To use these electronic books from off-campus locations, users must be affiliated with the University of Florida and log on via the UF VPN or Library Proxy.
