Love Data Week is an international event that takes place every year during the week of Valentine’s Day. Institutions around the world host data-related events, and Rutgers Libraries in New Brunswick have a variety of workshops planned that cover coding, GIS, and data management. Check out the schedule on our NBL workshop calendar at https://libcal.rutgers.edu/nblworkshops
The theme of #LoveData23 is Data: Agent of Change. In the hope of inspiring you to use data for positive change, I’ve put together a list of sources of datasets that have been collected on social justice issues and marginalized groups. The list is not comprehensive but I hope it may be useful in thinking about data for change. Please see the list at Speaking of STEM.
