title: Developing a Social Science and GIS Data Service in a Predominantly Undergraduate Library: Past, Present, and Future

description: At Ryerson University (in Toronto, Canada) social science data collection and service began in 1997. The data librarian was also the map librarian, so geospatial/GIS data became her responsibility as well. Data services (including geospatial data) to faculty and students have developed from the past (1997-2003: when they were Library centred, low profile, minimum resources for staff, equipment or computers) to the present (2003-2006: where they are university centred with a Geospatial, Map and Data Centre, full time technician, server space and Web delivery of some data) to the future (2006-200?: where they will hopefully be provincially centred, with the possibility of centrally archived and networked delivery of social science and geospatial data to Ontario universities). Techniques used at Ryerson to give data services sufficient profile to attract funding, and future scenarios being considered by the Ontario universities Data and Map librarians' groups for province wide delivery, will be examined.

title: Grasping the Big Picture: The Data Economy

description: The work that we do in data services at our individual institutions takes place in a much larger context. We rarely take time to reflect on the bigger picture, which may be risky since the larger context -- which is always changing -- can have a substantial impact locally. This part of the program might also be viewed as a large-scale environmental scan. How does the big picture in 2004 differ from the one we had when beginning DLI training in 1997? This session will present some ways of thinking about the big picture and will examine some of the changes in the big picture that have an impact on our local data services. Our training must reflect the changes in this context to remain relevant.

description: There are many considerations that should be looked at when deciding on the level of data service for an institution. These considerations ultimately boil down to two factors: time and money, or, simplifying even further, money, since time IS money. The key question therefore is: how much money is the institution prepared to invest in its data service?

title: Framing the Curriculum of DLI Training and Data Services: Part 2

description: This session will focus on the baseline of skills that Data Liberation Initiative (DLI) Contacts should have and the corresponding training to achieve these skills. Introducing newcomers to the language of statistics and data is one of the important tasks of the orientation. Acquiring a technical language often poses a barrier to newcomers. To overcome this hurdle, newcomers must grasp both the meaning of new concepts and its abbreviated language of acronyms. Should we expect the orientation to offer all of the baseline skills or is other instruction needed? Do different local environments result in varying uses of DLI resources? Are the same skills needed among differing environments? How much attention should be paid during the orientation to different models of data service? For example, should the implications of buying services from elsewhere (e.g., Sherlock, IDLS, CHASS, Queen’s, etc.) be covered? What kind of distinctions need to be made for the levels of support for instructional and research uses of data? What about the reference uses of data, that is, using data to answer reference questions? Are there additional skills required of those supporting DLI data for research and reference uses? If there are, what are they and how should they be introduced?

description: Leadership has been very important at the local level in addition to the national, regional, and provincial levels. In many ways, growth in the Data Liberation Initiative (DLI) has been the result of developing local communities. This work has been very dependent on local leadership, which has relied on the instruction of library managers, computing colleagues, and librarians as well as patrons of data services. This session will explore the importance of leadership in the data services community to ensure that the issues around the preservation and access to data are championed. The future of DLI will depend upon dedicated leadership from within the community at the local, regional, and national levels.

title: Weekly Counts of Death by Jurisdiction and Select Causes of Death

description: This visualization provides weekly data on the number of deaths by 
jurisdiction of occurrence and cause of death. Counts of deaths in more 
recent weeks can be compared with counts from earlier years to determine
 if the number is higher than expected. Selected causes of death are 
shown, based on analyses of the most prevalent comorbid conditions 
reported on death certificates where COVID-19 was listed as a cause of 
death (see https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm#Comorbidities).
 Cause of death counts are based on the underlying cause of death, and 
presented for Respiratory diseases, Circulatory diseases, Malignant 
neoplasms, and Alzheimer disease and dementia. Estimated numbers of 
deaths due to these other causes of death could represent misclassified 
COVID-19 deaths, or potentially could be indirectly related to COVID-19 
(e.g., deaths from other causes occurring in the context of health care 
shortages or overburdened health care systems). Deaths with an 
underlying cause of death of COVID-19 are not included in these 
estimates of deaths due to other causes. Deaths due to external causes 
(i.e. injuries) or unknown causes are excluded. For more detail, see the

title: Framing the Curriculum of DLI Training and Data Services: Part 1

description: The content for Data Liberation Initiative (DLI) training workshops was initially seen as consisting of instruction in five areas: data services, data management, data structure, data content, and data analysis & use. Training that addressed management and support activities was envisioned as cutting across these five areas. Since this first curriculum framework, training seems to have been grouped into four primary areas: the administration of DLI and the technical services needed to support this; knowledge of data content; data reference skills; and statistical and data literacy skills. What are the substantive topics and skills to be taught? What are the best practices from our experience with previous workshops that we should follow in the future?

description: Last year we were stretched with complex surveys using the Canadian Travel Survey. This year our data exercise will focus on shaping data from another interesting survey - the Canadian Tobacco Use Monitoring Survey (CTUMS). After last year's exercise using finger puppets, you'll find fitness for more than just your fingers! The objective of this computing exercise is to explore the different types of variables and their functions using the CTUMS 2001 for context. The vocabularies of data and analysis use different labels for the various functions that variables perform. In this exercise, you will identify some of these differences in CTUMS.
