Data Club returned in 2024 with a focus on JavaScript! In our first meeting, we got familiar with the basic syntax of the language and learned some rudimentary programming idioms. Then we worked on applying what we have learned to various tasks of our choosing.
Data Club, provided by Research Data Services at Columbia University Libraries, offers a series of strategic lessons and a supportive meeting space for members of the Columbia community of all levels to learn, share, and implement the philosophies, tools, and methodologies for a data-driven project of their choosing. In bi-monthly meetings, the Data Club provides a short instructive session, free-work time, and a collaborative and exploratory environment for researchers to pursue a personal project with the assistance of Columbia University librarians and their data-minded peers.
