Attention NC Libraries! Join the NC State Data Center and the SLNC Government & Heritage Library to learn how data resources from the North Carolina State Data Center can support libraries and the patrons they serve.

In the webinar, you'll learn how tools like LINC and the State Demographer platform provide essential statistical data for reference services, strategic planning, grant applications, and connecting patrons with invaluable insights into North Carolina's people, economy, government, and environment.

Presenter Bob Coats, the Governor’s Census Liaison with the North Carolina Office of State Budget and Management, will provide an introduction to LINC (Log into North Carolina), a one-stop data platform for all levels of users. This hour-long webinar will cover data available at state, county and community levels, including detailed demographic, socio-economic, housing, health, education, and much more. You’ll also get a quick introduction to using this data to identify trends and create visualizations. A Q&A session will follow the presentation.
