[Rdap] Webinar on visualization in libraries, September 22

[Jo Klein]

Greetings,

We would like to announce a public webinar on September 22nd at 1pm to 2pm
EST providing updates on Visualizing the Future
<https://visualizingthefuture.github.io/> grant work (IMLS
RE-73-18-0059-18). Visualizing the Future is an IMLS National Forum Grant
to develop a literacy-based instructional and research agenda for library
and information professionals with the aim to create a community of praxis
focused on data visualization. This grant, which has provided funding for
meetings for 13 fellows and 3 co-investigators, aims to create a diverse
community that will advance data visualization instruction and use beyond
hands-on, technology-based tutorials toward a nuanced, critical
understanding of visualization as a research product and form of expression.

Tune in to learn about:

   -

   The goals of the grant
   -

   Grant activities and projects, like our resources for new visualization
   librarians and our instruction modules in progress
   -

   Upcoming opportunities to join together as a community interested in
   visualization in libraries


We will plan to leave extensive time for public q&a and discussion. We
really want to know what the broader community is thinking and doing around
data visualization in libraries.

UNC Greensboro is a community of learners situated within a network of
historical and contemporary relationships with Native American tribes,
communities, parents, students, and alumni. We acknowledge that the land we
gather on has long served as the site of meeting and exchange amongst a
number of Indigenous peoples, specifically the Keyauwee and Saura.
