Dear social scientists! Please direct me to data sources (not the least microdata) that are available to students at the undergrad and master's level. I have already LIS and ILSA (PISA, TIMSS etc) on my list. #econsky #economics #data

Thrilled to share that my paper “Spatial Diffusion of Local Economic Shocks in Social Networks: Evidence from the US Fracking Boom” was accepted at JOLE earlier this year.

Very excited to start working on this project!

Biblioteket var stängt – lånade böcker ändå Stadsbiblioteket i Göteborg var stängt – men en dörr hade lämnats olåst av misstag.Över 400 personer besökte bibblan och 200 böcker lånades.– Ingenting

Heartwarming: when Gothenburg City Library staff left for a holiday weekend, they forgot to lock the doors. Almost 450 people enjoyed free library access over the weekend, borrowing close to 250 books. No damage was done. www.dn.se/sverige/bibl...
