West Warwick Public Library
Virtual follow up session: Wednesday, April 5, 2017 5-6 pm
Facilitator: Lauren Plews, State Data Coordinator, OLIS
Many libraries capture data but find it difficult to report and share. In this workshop you will be introduced to best practices in effective graphical representation of quantitative information. Learn how to select graphical formats to display your own data story and discover how appealing visual narratives makes data more accessible.
Participants will be tasked to create a visual using their own data and then share the experience at a follow up virtual session. Participants will be able to use what they have learned in their own practice but could also implement data visualization programs/instruction for their patrons and students.
