Documentation and Data Centre

The Documentation and Data Centre  (DDC) is the information core of the Institute. It is a specialised information centre whose main objective is to provide documentation and data facilities for researchers and practitioners in development-oriented Activities and to improve the capabilities for solving Caribbean development problems.

 
 

The DDC  was established as a support service for research and teaching. As the emphasis at ISER shifted over the years from basic applied research, and more recently, to policy studies, there has been a corresponding shift in demand from secondary to primary data.
 

Bibiliographic databases maintained by the DDC include the stock of the:
 

• ISER and the  Consortium Graduate School

• Mona Institute of Business

• Human Resource Development Programme and the

• Social Work  Programme.

At present, four WinTerms and one PC are used for public access to the online catalogues  with the PC being a dedicated Internet and WorldWideWeb access machine.
