Finding Datasets and Databases

A great way to find relevant datasets for your work is to contact your subject area librarian.

You can find a list of librarians who can help in identifying and locating data in the social and natural sciences here: https://dss.princeton.edu/specialists

           For a list of subject area librarians in all disciplines, check out https://library.princeton.edu/staff/specialists

If you’re a first, second, or third year undergraduate student at Princeton, you have a personal librarian! Go to this page to find out more: https://library.princeton.edu/personal-librarian
