We’re back from a busy but relaxing summer and are ready for another semester of Data Club. There are a few big changes this year. First, all of Research Data Services’s workshops are being offered as meetings under the Data Club banner. Eric, Jeremiah, Wei, and Moacir will each lead two meetings on topics of interest to them. Second, as a result, the meeting topics are much broader this semester than they have been in the past.

For this semester, we’ll be meeting at 4:10pm in Lehman 215. To enter Lehman Library, go to the third floor of the SIPA building (420 W. 118th St.). Every date is a Thursday.

As always, the best way to keep up to date with Data Club announcements is to have a look at our Data Club Linktree.
