*Local, state and federal governments are releasing data - the public's
data - in new ways. Property maps, 311 data, school quality information and
census statistics - all of these are examples of open data that give people
the tools they need to learn and advocate for their causes. This web
conference will explore how librarians are using open data, teaching others
about it, and even creating it. You’ll learn about tools you can implement
in your own library and hear stories from libraries that have partnered
with their local and state governments. Armed with practical tools and
experiences, you’ll be ready to start diving into open data to help your
library and community!*

*This is a free event, being held live online and also recorded.*
*REGISTER HERE <https://libraryopendata.eventbrite.com/>*
to attend live and/or to receive the recording links afterward.
Please also join this Library 2.0 network to be kept updated on this and
future events.

We invite all library professionals, employers, LIS students, and educators
to participate in this event.* The call for proposals is open now
