ESDS guides
ESDS has produced a series of guides that both introduce and provide guidance
on various ESDS services. In addition to showing how to navigate the ESDS web
sites, and online systems for finding and exploring social science data and
documentation held by ESDS, some of the guides include exercises that are used
in ESDS hands-on workshops. Other guides provide a more in-depth exploration of
issues pertaining to using data by research themes, software packages or data
analysis techniques.
