We are pleased to announce that as of August 1999 SOSIG
(Social Science Information Gateway), the world's number
one place to find social science information on the
Internet will be expanding its service. SOSIG provides a
browsable and searchable catalogue of thousands of high
quality Internet resources of relevance to anyone doing
teaching, research or studying in the area. Every record
in the catalogue has been created by a specialist and SOSIG
also runs its own "Harvester" - a search engine with
brains! The new service draws on the expertise of a number
of additional specialist organisations within the social
sciences to help build its database of resources. The new
partners are:
* Biz/ed - the Business and Economics specialists
* British Library for Political and Economic Science,
London School of Economics
* Centre for Social and Anthropological Computing,
University of Kent at Canterbury
* CTI Centre for Psychology, University of York
* Department of Sociology, University of Surrey
* Institute for Advanced Legal Studies, University of London
* National Institute for Social Work
In addition to the exanded catalogue of Internet resources
SOSIG will benefit from the leading edge research being
undertaken at the Institute for Learning and Research
Technology, University of Bristol, where the service is
based. This will include the use of personal user profiles
to provide news of conferences and courses in the social
sciences as well as an area for researchers to post CVs and
find potential research opportunities and partnerships.
SOSIG is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council
(ESRC) and the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC)
as part of the UK Resource Discovery Network (RDN).
