Get one of the last few spots in these workshops on October 18th. Librarians in every library type will benefit from data science training. Data discovery, management, and use will impact every library type in the near future. I look forward to meeting you there.


Please join us for one or both of the data management workshops offered at the Tenn-Share conference on Friday, October 18, 2019. This year Tenn-Share is offering two workshops designed for members with some previous exposure to data science and data management. There will be a morning and an afternoon workshop. Attendees must register ahead for the workshop as space is limited to 12 people. The cost is an additional $10 for each. Participants must also bring their own laptops and download software. Click on the Sessions tab when you register to select one or both.?? Please share this opportunity with you colleagues. Learn more and register at: https://www.tenn-share.org/fallconference
