SUMMARY:R showcase: Statistics Canada microdata
DESCRIPTION:Statistics 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 
 research.commons@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.
