About this Guide

Energy social sciences (ESS) is an interdisciplinary field that studies human behaviors, social processes, and public policymaking involved in energy production, distribution, and consumption.
The ESS LibGuide provides resources for both teaching and research in this field.
This guide is created by Luling Huang during his Postdoctoral Fellowship in Data Curation for Energy Social Sciences. This fellowship is made possible in partnership with the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR), with the generous support of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
