Please join us as Lehigh participates in ICPSR’s International Love Data Week, a global celebration of data, February 9-13. Library and Technology Services, the College of Health, and Career Enrichment (CE@L) are partnering on events, which explore the theme of Where’s the data? focusing on how data travels from collection through storage and preservation. Programming is designed to increase data literacy and explore ethical issues related to data.
