+We hope you have enjoyed \textit{Data for Development Impact: The DIME Analytics Resource Guide}.
+Our aim was to teach you to handle data more efficiently, effectively, and ethically.
+We laid out a complete vision of the tasks of a modern researcher,
+from planning a project's data governance to publishing code and data
+to accompany a research product.
+We have tried to set the text up as a resource guide
+so that you will always be able to return to it
+as your work requires you to become progressively more familiar
+with each of the topics included in the guide.
+
+We started the book with a discussion of research as a public service:
+one that requires you to be accountable to both research participants
+and research consumers.
+We then discussed the current research environment,
+which necessitates cooperation with a diverse group of collaborators
+using modern approaches to computing technology.
+We outlined common research methods in impact evaluation,
+with an eye toward structuring data work.
+We discussed how to implement reproducible routines for sampling and randomization,
+and to analyze statistical power and use randomization inference.
+We discussed data collection
+and analysis methods,
+as well as tools and practices for making this work publicly accessible.
+Throughout, we emphasized that data work is a ``social process'',
+involving multiple team members with different roles and technical abilities.
+This mindset and workflow, from top to bottom,
+outline the tasks and responsibilities
+that are fundamental to doing credible research.
+
+However, as you probably noticed, the text itself provides
+just enough detail to get you started:
+an understanding of the purpose and function of each of the core research steps.
+The references and resources get into the details
+of how you will realistically implement these tasks:
+from DIME Wiki pages detail specific code conventions
+and field procedures that our team considers best practices,
+to the theoretical papers that will help you figure out
+how to handle the unique cases you will undoubtedly encounter.
+We hope you will keep the book on your desk
+(or the PDF on your desktop)
+and come back to it anytime you need more information.
+We wish you all the best in your work
+and will love to hear any input you have on ours!\sidenote{
+You can share your comments and suggestion on this book through \url{https://worldbank.github.io/d4di}.}
