Department of Library and Information Science

Data is everywhere

The heart of our teaching, scholarship, and service lies in how we use data, information, and technology. To that end, we study, build, and critically analyze information infrastructures. Data management is key to innovation and good decision-making in everything from health care and education to the corporate sector.

Where can you take data?

  • Historic preservation
  • Outreach and education
  • Curation and archiving
  • Analysis and research
