The proliferation of online access to social science statistical
and numeric data sources, such as the U.S. Census Bureau s American
Fact Finder, has lead to an increased interest in supporting these
sources in academic libraries. Many large libraries have been able
to devote staff to data services for years, and recently smaller
academic libraries have recognized the need to provide numeric data
services and support. This guidebook serves as a primer to
developing and supporting social science statistical and numerical
data sources in the academic library. It provides strategies for
the establishment of data services and offers short descriptions of
the essential sources of free and commercial social science
statistical and numeric data. Finally, it discusses the future of
numeric data services, including the integration of statistics and
data into library instruction and the use of Web 2.0 tools to
visualize data.
