Love Your Data Week

 

What is Love Your Data Week?

It’s a five-day, international event happening in libraries and data centers, as well as on social media, to help researchers take better care of their data. 

What’s happening at Yale?

To celebrate Love Your Data Week, the Yale University Library, in partnership with the Office of the Deputy Provost for Research, is offering workshops, brown bags, tours, and even a Valentine-making party. We want to help you take care of your loved ones (and zeroes). 

How can you spread the data love?
