Suggest a Purchase

Know of a data resource that you think we should have?

If you've looked in data access and see that we don't own it, feel free to suggest a purchase. While the Libraries have limited resources, we welcome your suggestions for data resources that MIT affiliates would find helpful in their research. We encourage you to consult Dewey Library's Data Acquisition Guidelines

How can you make a suggestion? Fill out the Libraries' Suggested Purchase Form (MIT only). Note: this form may seem aimed at requests for books, but you are welcome to input information about data sets, databases, or any other resources you would like to suggest.
