%T Towards a standard for the description of historical datasets %A Hall, Ninette van %J Historical Social Research %N 1 %P 89-117 %V 14 %D 1989 %@ 0172-6404 %= 2009-02-26T13:40:00Z %~ GESIS %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-51900 %X Several countries are planning a data-archive facility for historical datasets. In the archives the data will be extensively documented. A standardized way of describing the machine readable datasets will facilitate the exchange of information. The Standard Study Description Scheme used at the long existing social science data-archives is - in unaltered form - not applicable to historical datasets. There are many similarities between social scientific datasets and historical datasets. It is useful for historians to use a documentation standard that can be exchanged with the standards in use at social science data-archives. At the same time the specific demands of the historical datasets should be taken into consideration. %C DEU %G en %9 journal article %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
