Ron Nakao

I am responsible for purchasing Library materials and resources, such as books, journals, and data to support research and teaching in economics and political science. Contact me if you have questions about our economics, political science or social science data collections.

I am Stanford's Representative to two Social Science Data Archives, the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) and the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research (Roper) and can help you access their collections and resources.

I can assist you in preparing your research proposal's Data Management Plan (DMP) and can work with you to document and share your data with other researchers (http://data.stanford.edu/) and preserve it for the long-term in the Stanford Digital Repository (SDR).
