Locating Nonprint Materials in Adult, Career, and Vocational Education. The ERIC database contains much information about nonprint educational materials. However, it does not have catalog or directory information or list specific products except as they are mentioned in documents or journal articles. This ERIC Digest provides information on how to find videotapes, audiotapes, CD-ROMs, computer software, and other nonprint materials in the areas of adult, career, and vocational education. Whether you are talking to a colleague, the manager of your local computer store, a presenter at a conference, or those on the Internet, networking works.
Personal contacts are a primary source of information.
For example, the Center on Education and Training for Employment has collections of material on tech prep and on equity that can be borrowed by teachers within the state of Ohio. Other centers have similar collections. Your state department of education has information about the vocational education and literacy resource centers in your state. They have large collections of print and nonprint materials that are available for loan to those within their region. The CCCs and states that they serve are listed here.
