Registry of Research Data Repositories (re3data.org)
Global registry of more than 2,000 research data repositories from different academic disciplines, that can be browsed by domain, subject, country, or content type, and searched by different attributes.

European Social Science Thesaurus, a multilingual thesaurus available in 13 European languages.
