SUMMARY:R Showcase: Statistics Canada Microdata
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of Love Data Week 2025\, co-sponsored by 
 SFU\, UBC\, UNBC\, and UVic. Registration is open to 
 everyone.\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. 
 Those new to R can benefit from a demonstration that 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 
 jeremy.buhler@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.
