The Irish Social Science Data Archive (ISSDA) is Ireland’s centre for quantitative data acquisition, preservation, and dissemination.
Established in 2000, ISSDA’s mission is to ensure wide access to quantitative datasets in the social sciences, and to advance the promotion of international comparative studies of the Irish economy and Irish society. To this end it acquires data from academic, research bodies and public sector sources, supporting:
• Secondary use and analysis for research
• Teaching and learning use
• Replication and validation of research
• Archival preservation
