NYU Shanghai Library compiled and developed this guide to provide direction and access to data sources and other resources in primarily open repositories and public databases for our users. One of our goals is to facilitate discovering, sharing, and archiving research data in STEM and Social Sciences.
We also provide tips of finding data resources on your own on this page.
Please feel free to share this guide to anyone who may be interested. The lists and collections in this guide are not exhaustive. We welcome suggestions and feedback from our users.
