This page contains links to a number of different library guides that have been compiled by librarians in different libraries or departments on campus. While these represent data to be found in different disciplines, this is not an exhaustive list.
This guide has advice for finding medical data and also links to resources from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS).
This guide provides assistance to researchers looking for government-related data and statistics (includes resources on the US, state/local governments, and international governments/organizations).
The archive has almost 200 variables and contains data for almost 200 country units, with provision entries from 1815 (excluding the two wartime periods, 1914-1918 and 1940-1945). The basic structure of the data is that of a rectangular matrix of periodically augmented records, each encompassing data for one country-year (from the User's Manual).
