Frisian Academy in Leeuwarden conducted a visitor survey during an open day in 1992. The survey asked adult visitors about their familiarity with the Academy's work, their first language, and their Frisian identity. The dataset is archived by DANS Data Station Social Sciences and Humanities and was last updated in October 2025.
