On November 8-9, Hunter Library will host four sessions for Western Carolina University’s inaugural Geographic Information Systems Day—a national event since 1987, and now directly accessible to Western students, faculty and staff.
Hunter’s own Bart Voskuil, Reference Librarian/Environmental and Geosciences Liaison, will present the first session, “G.I.S. Resources @ WCU and Mapping Census Data,” on November 8, from 1:00-2:00 pm, in the Library’s electronic classroom (HL186). Other workshop sessions include:
