ICPSR Data Catalog

An international consortium of more than 750 academic institutions and research organizations, Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) provides leadership and training in data access, curation, and methods of analysis for the social science research community. ICPSR provides all of its metadata records in DDI format. About 75 percent of the holdings also have DDI-compliant variable-level information.

The Dataverse Project

The Dataverse Project is a community and an open source web application to share, preserve, cite, explore and analyze research data.

CLOSER

A key part of the CLOSER project is the creation of a Uniform Search Platform allowing users to search the metadata from all of the projects included to find key variables for their research. The metadata will be substantially enhanced and made available in DDI-Lifecycle format.
