Information on women in over 190 countries is compiled in a single collection bringing together such disciplines as sociology, psychology, health, education, business administration and political science. Reports include research, surveys, and statistical data on a range of women's issues and comprise over three quarters of the sources in the database. Reports are published by prominent national and international organizations. Journals and newletters comprise almost 150 sources from which articles are selected. These sources have been identified as important or essential by leading professionals involved in women's issues and women's studies.
Periodicals have a primary focus on pertinent issues affecting women's lives around the world.
Guides, factsheets, pamphlets, and proceedings are included as additional information sources. This is a partially full-text database that covers core international periodicals, books, and yearbooks. Topics include a wide range of contemporary education issues, including government funding, instructional media, multicultural education, religious education, student counseling, and competency-based and informational technology. English-language books related to education published in 1995 or later are also indexed. For the most recent research in a topic area, use Education Abstracts, as it is updated monthly.
