Ron's role in the library
I consult at Social Science Data and Software (SSDS) and can help you with your questions about finding data or using software for social science research or instruction.
I am Stanford's Representative to two Social Science Data Archives, the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) and the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research, and can help you access their collections and resources.
I can assist you in preparing your research proposal's Data Management Plan (DMP) and can work with you to share your data with other researchers (http://data.stanford.edu/) or preserve it for the long-term.
From March, 2015-present, I am also serving as the interim selector for Economics.
