The Population Research Institute’s Simple Online Data Archive for Population Studies (SodaPop) has moved to its new Web site at http://sodapop.pop.psu.edu.

You will find that the layout of information on the site has changed; the primary difference being tabbed navigation for general information (home, collections, and explore) and for each dataset page (description, download, and search functions).

The basic functionality of the system—variable searching, online documentation, and data download—is up and running. Over the coming months, the SodaPop team will be actively working on adding enhanced features to the site: help information, technical notes for specific datasets, and special access information for PRI users.

The new site also includes a comprehensive list of data from the PRI Data Archive available to PRI affiliates.

We encourage you to explore the new site and let us know what you think. Should you discover any bugs, have questions, or wish to offer feedback on the site’s design, please contact the SodaPop team.
