DLD Minis | Public Library Statistical Charts and Visualizations

DLD Minis | Public Library Statistical Charts and Visualizations

Each year, CT Public Libraries submit an annual report that reflects the accomplishments they have achieved over the past fiscal year. Charts and other visualizations of this data serve as a tool for libraries to be able to tell a story to their communities. Come learn about the different ways your library's story can be visualized with tools supported by DLD.

Presenter: 

Barbara Ghilardi, State Data Coordinator

Recording and Slides:

This program is being recorded and will be made available on the CT State Library Division of Library Development YouTube.  There will be no slides as we will be browsing the DLD LibGuides and our Public Charts webpage.

Who Should Come?

Perfect for library directors and other library staff interested in data visualization.
