Hello Rural Library Friends,
Sharing this webinar from Census.gov that is occurring today!
Serve or work in a rural community? Join Data Dissemination Specialists from the U.S. Census Bureau for an informative session designed to help rural‑serving professionals access Census data to better understand the people and economies they support. Participants
will explore key Census geographies relevant to rural communities and discover the wide range of Census data available to support assessments and planning. Through demonstrations, participants will learn to leverage data.census.gov and other key data tools
to make data-informed decisions in their work.
Quick note:
The
Census Academy has grown quite a bit, but they do not guarantee webinar recordings.
"Availability of recorded webinars will vary depending on the quality of the final recorded files. Recordings that are approved will be available within 30 days of the original webinar date."
Census.gov is handy for a multitude of things from programming, grant writing, strategic planning, and assessing service areas/projects to helping understand the demographics of our communities.
Have a fabulous day!
Always,
Shauna Quick
Library Technology Access Consultant
