STATISTICS: RESOURCES :
TEMPLE UNIVERSITY:
Social Science Data Library (SSDL)

Established in 1975, the Social Science Data Library (SSDL)
serves as Temple University's centralized, interdisciplinary

repository for computerized social science data and
expertise in the analysis of such data. Currently, its holdings
incorporate files on virtually subject of interest to social
scientists. The files range from nineteenth century census
data to health examination surveys of national samples to
arrest records from the Paris Insurrection of 1848 to
international economic statistics. SSDL also is a member of
the Inter-university Consortium for Political and
Social Research, which gives students and faculty access to
thousands of other data files. The primary mission of SSDL

is to support research and instruction in the social sciences
by making its holdings freely available to faculty and students,
by creating special files tailored to the needs of specific
courses or research projects, by offering classroom
instruction and individual consultative assistance in the use
of its holdings, by acquiring and creating new data sets in
which there is likely to be instructional and research
interest, and by introducing to Temple users new
technologies which facilitate data analysis.
