The CESSDA Data Catalogue: which datasets are retrievable? An investigation through metadata
Abstract
The Consortium of European Social Science Data Archive (CESSDA) is a research infrastructure bringing together social science data archives in Europe. The aim of CESSDA is to share experiences and strengthen cooperation, raising awareness among the scientific community about research data sharing. The CESSDA Data Catalogue is one of the main tools provided by the infrastructure. Through a web interface, it is possible to search for data among all participating archives. This work offers a general overview of the data retrievable through the CESSDA Data Catalogue, providing an introductory framework on the scope, languages used and geographical area. Subsequently, for each individual archive, topics, data collection methods and other information are explored in depth, also evaluating the availability and precision of the metadata.Downloads
