Data Visualization Drop-In: Guided Practice + Q&A

Where:

  • Ft. Garry, Dafoe Library, Gold Lab (DAF111)
  • Health Sciences, NJM Library, Paterson Lab (Rm. 231)

When:

  • 12- 1 p.m. (Usually Tuesday)

Join us for an informal data visualization drop-in where you can explore a short, themed exercise at your own pace. Work through a hands-on example designed to spark ideas about how data can be visualized clearly and effectively—no prior experience required.

Meg Miller (GIS & Research Visualization Librarian) will be on hand throughout the session to answer questions about the exercise, talk through design choices, or help you think about visualization approaches for your own research data. Whether you’re just getting started or refining an existing project, this drop-in is a chance to experiment, ask questions, and get practical feedback in a relaxed setting.

Drop in anytime during the session. Stay for as little or as long as you like.
