Methodspace (http://www.methodspace.com/) is a multidimensional online network for the community of researchers, from students to professors, engaged in research methods. Sponsored by SAGE, a leading publisher of books and journals in research methods, the site is created for students and researchers to network and share research, resources and debates. Methodspace users have free access to selected journal articles, book chapters, etc which highlight emerging topics in the field.

Start by creating your own page with your profile, research interests, Podcasts and videos. The easiest place to start getting the most out of Methodspace is the forum page, where you can read, discuss and debate articles, lists, links and the other fun stuff we regularly post. Why not launch an interest group for your field, research group, society, division or department - and be sure to invite people to join. Start a blog; upload poster presentations, podcasts and videos; create open and closed discussions; check out teaching resources and share course outlines and syllabi; and view, post, and RSVP to upcoming meetings.

Methodspace is here for you so the best way to have the community you want is to get involved: so please read, comment, post, listen, share resources and follow debates.
