ICPSR, a data archive for the social and behavioral sciences, is a core resource for quantitative (and increasingly for qualitative) researchers. This workshop will highlight the resources and services available to you through Northwestern's ICPSR membership (maintained by the University Libraries). NU students, faculty, and staff have access to raw data from more than 10,000 studies, support for teaching with quantitative data, training in statistical methodologies and data management through the annual Summer Program, and a repository for sharing datasets for secondary analysis by other researchers.
