Discover the heart of academic excellence at The Libraries, the most-used service on campus and an essential component of education and research. With access to more than 6 million print and digital items, along with innovative programs and support services, our expert personnel are dedicated to assisting patrons in achieving their scholarly goals.

Willis Library hosts multiple workshops, and we invite you to join us on Wednesday, November 29, from noon to 1:00 pm for Finding and Using Public Data in Research. Incorporating data in your thesis or dissertation is one way to provide persuasive evidence for a hypothesis. While there are many data made publicly available for use by researchers, finding them can be a challenge. This 1-hour workshop covers methods of identifying appropriate public data resources, understanding the limitations of public data, and best practices and other considerations for adding data to your scholarly output. The event is designed with graduate students in mind, but all are welcome to attend. Presented by the Research Support Services Department’s data services librarian, Deborah Yun Caldwell.
