    You are invited to participate in a research study that will examine how librarians are approaching social science data literacy instruction in light of recent changes to the availability of government data. This study aims to understand how librarians are rethinking education around data literacy and the availability of government and social science data in the context of an ever-changing data landscape, to determine how we as librarians can ensure that researchers at all levels (undergraduate, graduate, faculty) working with government data are adequately supported. This study consists of one online survey that should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. Participation is entirely voluntary. Please click here for the survey and consent form. Thank you for your participation! Please email Whitney Kramer at wbk39@cornell.edu with any questions.
