Data @ New York Public Library

Speaker: Daphna Blatt, Director of Strategic Research and Analytics,
New York Public Library.

For more than 100 years, the New York Public Library (NYPL) has been a center of community, learning, and research, a leading institution in New York City, and in our nation. With more than 53 million items, it is (by some measures) the third largest library system in the world. Serving over 3 million people, its mission is inspiring lifelong learning, advancing knowledge, and strengthening our communities.

Come hear Daphna Blatt, Director of Strategic Research & Analytics at NYPL, discuss the roles that data and innovation in analytics play in understanding how different communities engage with the Library and its materials, and talk about strategic, evidence-based opportunities for NYPL looking ahead. It will be a Data + the Greater Good discussion you won't want to miss.
