SUMMARY:R Showcase: Statistics Canada Microdata
DESCRIPTION:Information for Participants\n\nStatistics Canada releases 
 Public Use Microdata Files (PUMFs) for the Census and many of its surveys. 
 These de-identified files contain responses at the individual level and are 
 a rich source of data for researchers.\n\nThis workshop demonstrates how to 
 access\, explore\, and analyze Statistics Canada microdata using R. We will 
 work with the Canadian Tobacco and Nicotine Survey but the content applies 
 to any Statistics Canada PUMF\, hundreds of which are freely available in 
 Abacus\, UBC Library’s data repository.\n\nThere are no prerequisites. 
 Participants familiar with R and RStudio can follow along on their own 
 workstations. For those new to R\, the workshop showcases how R can be used 
 for analysis and reproducibility.\n\nIf you are new to R and want to 
 participate fully\, please install R and RStudio before the 
 workshop:\n\n\n	Install R from https://cran.rstudio.com/\n	Install RStudio 
 from https://rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download\n\n\n \n\nIf 
 you have any questions\, concerns or accessibility needs please email 
 milan.simic@ubc.ca.\n\nTo keep up-to-date with all of the workshops\, 
 consults and events\, subscribe to the UBC Library Research Commons monthly 
 newsletter.\n\nThis event is online. Registrants receive the link 24 hours 
 before the event. Registration closes at the same time.
