Find, Use, Cite, Repeat: A short guide on how to cite microdata from Statistics Netherlands
|
|
|
Despite the improvements in the findability and reusability of data promoted by the FAIR principles and the Joint Declaration of Data Principles, it is not always easy to trace back data sources from publications. In this article, the FAIR Support Team discusses the importance of citing data and, in particular, how to cite Dutch administrative data (gathered by Statistics Netherlands (CBS)). They furthermore show how the ODISSEI Portal can be helpful in this process.

 E-data, the Dutch newsletter for data and research in humanities and social sciences, of which ODISSEI is a stakeholder, is fielding a reader survey. With this survey, the editors want to find out whether the magazine should cover more subject areas, what the paper/digital ratio should be, and how they can make the magazine even more attractive. Readers of E-data are warmly invited to fill out the survey (in Dutch). |

Lorentz workshops for the Social Sciences
|
|
 The Lorentz Center is a workshop center in Leiden that hosts international scientific meetings of typically one week. Lorentz Center workshops are meetings where researchers meet to discuss and work together on scientific developments, ideas and plans in an open and interactive atmosphere. Any researcher or group of researchers can apply for organizing a workshop at the Lorentz Center, with the Lorentz Center covering a substantial amount of the workshop costs. Workshop proposals can be submitted three times a year and social scientists are strongly encouraged to apply. If you have an idea for a workshop and would like to consult ODISSEI on potential co-applicants or participants, please email info@odissei-data.nl. The next deadline is 30 May 2023.
