Sighthound Sunday:  Need Data?

The library can help you find the data you need for your research paper. You might want to consider some of these great sources:

The U.S. Census -  a leading source of quality data about the nation's people and economy going as far back as 1790. Oberlin College Library has access to this data in print on the 4th floor of Mudd, as well as electronic access through Proquest Congressional.

In addition to this data source, you will find several other useful databases, including .Data-Planet, Proquest Statistical Abstracts of the World, Social Explorer, and more.

If you need help finding the data you need, just ask a librarian.
