Visualizing the Digital Future: A Panel Presentation

Featuring:

Jennifer Vinopal, Librarian for Digital Scholarship Initiatives, New York University

For this year’s Spring Program, our speakers will address new technologies and new tools. Jefferson will discuss and provide examples of data visualization, a relatively new field of activity in which information, often in the form of large data sets, is communicated efficiently through graphical means. Jeffrey will speak about new technologies and their library potential in the context of his work as the Emerging Technologies Coordinator in Columbia University’s Science and Engineering Libraries. Jennifer will describe some of the challenges and opportunities in building services for digital scholarship at NYU.

Please join us for what promises to be an interesting evening!
