I attended the session A Bigger Boat: Data Visualization Lessons from the Movies at the 2018 Library Technology Conference. Why should we care about data visualization? If you have ever had to put together a presentation for your funders, created an annual report, or tried to summarize results from a survey, you’ve probably had to think about how to display the data visually. Well-displayed information can be powerful and help answer questions quickly and easily.
On March 14th, 2018, attendees of the annual Library Technology Conference at Macalester College in St. Paul will be able to see not one, but two presentations by DIME staff. Digital Preservation Day at the Library will feature Sara Ring and Lizzy Baus and Molly Huber and Greta Bahnemann wil present Minnesota Digital Library: Today and Tomorrow.
Minnesota Digital Library (MDL) staff Molly Huber and Greta Bahnemann were joined by Associate University Librarian for Data and Technology John Butler and University Copyright Program Librarian Nancy Sims in a presentation called “It’s Time: Getting it Right on Rights” at the 2017 Library Technology Conference, Macalester College, St. Paul. The well-attended presentation addressed the groundswell of rights standardization projects that are arising out of the push by the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) to standardize rights statements across the millions of items accessible through their website.
