The National Centre for e-Social Science (NCeSS) is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) to investigate and promote the use of e-science to benefit social science research. The overall goal of NCeSS is to stimulate the uptake and use of emerging e-science technologies within the social sciences. To do this, we provide information, training, advice, support and online resources. NCeSS also researches the use of e-science technologies and advises on the future strategic direction of e-social science. The Centre is made up of a co-ordinating hub, based at the University of Manchester with support from the UK Data Archive at the University of Essex, plus seven research nodes based at institutions throughout the UK. A series of smaller e-social science projects have been commissioned under the ESRC small grant scheme. This has been added to Reserach Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.
