Data Services: Reference Library

The Stanford University Libraries have acquired a large collection of datasets and printed codebooks from many sources that can be searched in Socrates. You should limit your search to "electronic resources" records. Although many datasets now come with only electronic format codebooks, the Socrates "Long" record will indicate if SSDS has a print copy of a dataset's codebook, as well as its location and call number. Printed codebooks located in the Green Library with a STACKS location designation can be checked out. Codebooks located in the Green Library with the SSRC-SSDS location designation are non-circulating and are shelved in the The Velma Denning Room.

Note: To request datasets cataloged in Socrates, click on the link "Request this dataset [Stanford users only]" at the bottom of the "Long" record. Fill out the form and submit it. You will need a SUNet ID to make this request. In general, data requests will be available within one working day. To find out how to access your data once it is available, see Getting and Using Data on SSDS Disk Space .
