New consolidated micro data access portal from the United Kingdom Data Service (UKDS)

The UK Data Service and archive has launched a unified portal giving access to over 6,000 ESRC-associated social and economic data sets, census data, government-funded surveys, longitudinal studies and business microdata. (For macro data go to this Library page.)  The newly launched UKDS variables’ search engine helps locate study-level observations. EUI members should complete the online registration form for non-UK based researchers.  Usernames and passwords are issued by email, after which it is necessary to log in selecting ‘UK Data Archive’ as organisation type.  Write to [email protected] for assistance. A presentation of micro-socioeconomic data resources takes place in the Library training room at 13:30 on Tuesday 26 of March.
