On 2 December 2009, the symposium ‘Driven by data’ took place in The Hague to celebrate the anniversaries of a number of archiving institutions that are now all part of DANS (Data Archiving and Networked Services). It was a lively meeting that paid attention to various surprising and creative possibilities associated with the reuse of electronic data. DANS decided to publish this jubilee volume to give a larger public a taste of this versatility and creativity. The contributions cover topics as diverse as dendrochronology, politics, shipping traffic history, bird migration, philosophy of science and statistics.
