ReStore is a sustainable repository of online research methods resources which preserves, sustains and actively maintains web resources developed as part of ESRC funding mainly representing subjects of research methods in social sciences. These online resources not only provide a valuable personal development resource for researchers unable to participate in face-to-face training, but also provide an important repository of social science knowledge.
We have restored a number of online methods web resources into ReStore repository (www.restore.ac.uk) which are updated regularly in collaboration with the original web resource authors. The active collaboration between ReStore team and primary project investigators ensures that the contents on the site are up to date and all the links on the site are functional and working as expected. This relationship is in fact what makes ReStore repository a reliable source of knowledge in research methods both in terms of content quality and availability.
