Data: help is here!

Do you need access to statistical software? Are you trying to locate political, demographic, economic, or financial data? If so, you may want to schedule a visit the new Library Data Lab. Located in room 189 Doe Library (on the first floor, between the south entrance and the Circulation Desk; pdf map), the Data Lab provides access to a growing collection of electronic data and tools including Thomson DataStream and Current Population Surveys Utilities, and offers analytical software such as SAS, SPSS, and Stata. A limited number of laptops are available for checkout for in-lab use.  The lab is open to all UC Berkeley students, faculty,  and staff.  For more information, visit the Data Lab website or email.
