—Gale/Free Resources/Reference Reviews January 2004
The demand for distance education is growing thanks to schedule conflicts in traditional schools, a desire for AP classes and enrichment opportunities, and interest in homeschool options. This directory is sure to be a welcome addition in public and school libraries. Nothing else pulls so much information together in one print source.
—Booklist/Reference Books Bulletin October 15, 2003
