[CLOSER][1] is the interdisciplinary partnership of leading social and biomedical longitudinal population studies (LPS), the UK Data Service and The British Library. One of our areas of focus is training and capacity building. We currently offer free, online educational resources on our [Learning Hub][2] on a range of LPS-related topics, including [Understanding metadata][3], which provides a...
As more and more data producers and research institutions are interested in documenting their data, following the often mandatory Data Management Plan, they find themselves in need for ready to use software tools that are capable of creating and modifying a Codebook, in the vein of Nesstar Publisher.
Until such a software will appear, it is possible to fully populate a DDI Codebook using the...
