U.S. Census data is an amazing resource for understanding how population, race, income (and more!) vary from place to place. This workshop will show you how to find data on the U.S. Census Bureau’s website and explore it in an interactive web map. You’ll come away with a better understanding of the different types of Census data and how to search for data relevant to your project.

ISSR is pleased to co-sponsor this workshop of the UMass Amherst Libraries. Contact Rebecca Seifried (@email) for further information.
