News You Can Use
Data Pathways is a project that was sponsored by the Emerging Leaders Program in 2018 and was directed by the Public Library Association (PLA) and RIPL (Research Institute for Public Libraries). The Emerging Leaders were tasked with creating and finding resources for public library staff to become more familiar with data resources. This presentation will explain the process that the Emerging Leaders Group I went through to develop this online digital tool, and will explore how library staff (public, academic, special, rural, and more) can use this tool to learn the basics about data competencies.
