Open data is data that can be freely used, re-used and redistributed by anyone and is subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and sharealike. Open data is in a format that is easy to modify and work with and open for anyone to use with no cost associated. This promotes transparency and accountability from a governmental standpoint.

In celebration of Open Education Week, this workshop in the Data Crunch series hosted by Swem Library and McLeod Business Library will introduce you to Open Data and how you can locate Open Datasets for your research.

Lunch will be provided to registered participants. Please register by February 29th.
