Social Science Research Resources Network
The Social Science Research Resources Network (SSRRN) was founded in 2008. It is a website that aims to assist social science researchers to conduct research by providing a platform that easily search all free database and statistical programming codes in the internet.
More and more researchers provide their resources free online in recent years as contributions to the social science research network. However, these resources are spread in different websites, which consumes researchers' time in searching these information. SSRRN thus provides a platform that gathers information of all free resources together and hence saves researcher’s time in searching resources. SSRRN does not host any data and programming codes, but provides a link to the webpage of the owner of the resources. Researchers can post basic information of their resources, i.e. title, descriptions and links, to SSRRN for indexing.

Famous quotes containing the words social, science, research, resources and/or network:
“In the old times men carried out their rights for themselves as they lived, but nowadays every baby seems born with a social manifesto in its mouth much bigger than itself.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“The present war having so long cut off all communication with Great-Britain, we are not able to make a fair estimate of the state of science in that country. The spirit in which she wages war is the only sample before our eyes, and that does not seem the legitimate offspring either of science or of civilization.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“The research on gender and morality shows that women and men looked at the world through very different moral frameworks. Men tend to think in terms of “justice” or absolute “right and wrong,” while women define morality through the filter of how relationships will be affected. Given these basic differences, why would men and women suddenly agree about disciplining children?”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“When we want culture more than potatoes, and illumination more than sugar-plums, then the great resources of a world are taxed and drawn out, and the result, or staple production, is, not slaves, nor operatives, but men,—those rare fruits called heroes, saints, poets, philosophers, and redeemers.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
