| The literature on social networks has devoted considerable attention to methods for collecting network data. It has yet to reach consensus in many areas. However, more effort is needed to publicize best practices and disseminate them to applied researchers. The insufficient coverage stems from numerous sources, including conceptual challenges, the structural complexity of network data, and issues of sensitivity and confidentiality surrounding relational data. This subject is far from being codified and there are still many open problems. The workshop on //Social Network Data Collection// aspires to focus attention on network data collection, to encourage contact and collaboration among scholars pursuing research about it, and to develop foundations to improve data collection methods. | The literature on social networks has devoted considerable attention to methods for collecting network data.
