The SAA Dataverse Is Coming!

SAA's Committee on Research, Data, and Assessment (CORDA) is thrilled to announce that SAA has entered into a memorandum of agreement with the Odum Institute for Research in Social Science at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to establish the "SAA Dataverse"! 

Launching later this year, the SAA Dataverse will support active data reuse and reevaluation on behalf of the entire archival community and will welcome data deposits from our designated communities. 

In celebration of "Love Data" Week (February 8-12, 2021), CORDA will be hosting a virtual open house for those interested in shaping the future of the Dataverse! Join us on Friday, February 12th from 12-1pm ET to learn more about the Dataverse and our collecting policy draft.

Looking Ahead
