What has happened?
Human Research Protections and Institutional Review Board
DDI and Metadata standards Trend of mainstreaming social science data New web technology and tremendous
information growth on the Internet Data and data extracting tools available
from various web sites Higher user expectation

Human Research Protections Obtained IRB exempt status for public-use datasets
available from DPLS, ICPSR and Roper Work with UW Purchasing services for license
agreement (e.g. KLD STATS) Certain datasets requires users to sign an agreement
first (e.g. Add Health) Refer users to Sensitive Data Facility at the Social
Science Computing Cooperative for secured storage if they have restricted/sensitive data Cold Room Frozen Tundra

Data Web Sites
How are our collection development and technical service affected? ICPSR and Roper studies are not longer added to our
holdings database Instead of maintaining user interface programs on
various CD-Roms, we direct users to interface programs on the web
How effectively are our users utilizing these sites? Are the contents on a site well-organized? Is a site easy to navigate? Is its data extracting tool intuitive? Are users aware of the limits of data posted on a site?
![Page 22: IASSIST 2006 1 From Primitive Numbers to Knowledge: how technology has enhanced the dissemination of social science data Chiu-chuang (Lu) Chou University.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d2b5503460f94a008c8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

DAS for NCES Studies
Respondents’ confidentiality is protected The new DAS is not a table aggregator any
more Users can manipulate the data without
direct access to the data It can modify up to several thousand
variables on the fly Users can request new variables be added
to their analysis

Provide accelerating access to data sources (ICPSR Direct, Roper Express, IFS, SourceOECD, WDI and etc.)
Constant contents update on our web site Collaborate with other campus libraries in
resource sharing and referrals Network with research units
