open sesame: open data, data liberation and opportunities for librarians
DESCRIPTION
A call to librarians to use their library powers in the community beyond the walls of their institutions as the open data folks need their knowledge! Title: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and New Opportunities for Libraries Abstract: Cities and data producers are quickly embracing Open Data, albeit unevenly. The Data Liberation Initiative (DLI) has been a pioneer in broadening access to data for nearly two decades. This session will examine the relevance of Data Liberation in terms of Open Data and explore how librarians can step up to the plate to make Open Data/Open Government as successful as DLI. Speakers: - Wendy Watkins, Data Librarian, Carleton University - Ernie Boyko, Adjunct Data Librarian, Carleton University - Tracey P. Lauriault, Post Doctoral Fellow, Carleton University ([email protected]) - Margaret Haines, University Librarian, Carleton UniversityTRANSCRIPT

Why Should We Care About Data?
• We use data to understand the world in which we live
• Gives us evidence for decision and policy making – Individuals
– Corporations
– Governments
• Good data are essential
for good governance
![Page 5: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What is the Data Liberation Initiative?
• Program to provide affordable access to Statistics Canada’s public datafiles and databases to academics
• Not really open – subscription based
• Partnership between Statistics Canada and Canadian post-secondary institutions
• Housed in academic libraries – Logical place on campus because of service
orientation and campus-wide coverage
– Used to administering licences
![Page 6: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why and How Did It Start?
• Canadian universities unable to afford StatCan data
• Used US data or simply did without
• 1992 paper suggested a solution
• 1996 government adopted the plan
• Expected 30 universities to join
– 50 became members within the 1st year
– Far exceeded expectations
![Page 7: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What Does It Include?
• All public Statistics Canada databases – Tables, graphs, time-series aggregate data
• Geographic files at every level – National
– Provincial
– Sub-provincial
• 350 Public Use Microdata files – Anonymized records of individual responses
– “Designer data”
![Page 8: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Statistics and Data
• Statistics are data that have been organized
• Data are raw numbers that must be processed to make sense
![Page 9: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Statistics and Data – an analogy
• Using statistics is like buying a postcard
– Someone else defines the view
• Data have the power of a camera
– Researcher makes decisions on content
![Page 10: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What Are DLI’s Benefits?
• Dedicated and knowledgeable team at Statistics Canada
• One-stop-shop for all data and statistical products
• Ready help via the listserv
• Annual regional training programs
• National training (every 4 years)
• Boot camps for new members (as needed)
• Community of data professionals
![Page 11: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Transition to Free Statistics Canada Data
• No change for DLI – Stopped paying for data in 2000
• All about data management – Robust metadata – Quality control
• One licence per institution for the collection – non-DLI – one licence per PUMF per person – Not a workable solution for academic libraries
• Access to valuable data NOT available outside DLI – Canadian Centre for Health Information (CIHI)
microdata Discharge Abstract Database (DAD) – Other important microdata under negotiation
![Page 12: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Data Liberation’s Relations
![Page 13: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Programs/Projects as a Result of DLI
• Research Data Centre Network http://www.rdc-cdr.ca/
– network of 27 research centres with secure access to Statistics Canada’s confidential data
• <odesi> http://odesi.ca
– a digital repository for social science data
– data exploration, extraction and analysis tool
– built by academic data librarians
• Data Liberation International
![Page 14: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

![Page 16: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
A view from the Developing World
• AKA: Data Liberation International
- Different set of challenges for developing countries than Canadian DLI
- But the principles are transferable
- This presentation will outline the path followed by developing countries to reach the goal of data to support research and learning in the context of their economic and social development
![Page 17: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Data and Development
• The value of data to guide economic and social development has been recognized a long time ago - World census of population and agriculture
program
- UN Statistics Division coordination
- Periodic household surveys sponsored by international donors
- A greater focus on macro financial time series after the ‘Mexican Peso Crisis’
![Page 18: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Barriers to Use of Sound Data
• Relevance
- Aligned to national or sponsors’ priorities ?
- Optimal timing and sequencing ?
• Data Quality
• Reliability
• Comparability
- Over time, and across countries
![Page 19: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Barriers Cont’d
• Accessibility
- Legal, technical, political, psychological issues
• Usability
- Poor documentation risk of misuse
![Page 20: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Barriers Cont’d
• Accessibility
Legal, technical, political, psychological issues
• Usability
Poor documentation risk of misuse
Lesson: Even if data are open, one
must pay attention to quality and
accessibility issues
![Page 21: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Marrakech Action Plan for Statistics
But measuring development
progress is still difficult…
![Page 25: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

A web-based database of surveys,
searchable by region/country,
type of survey, year, etc.
Advanced search (by topic)
being developed.
![Page 30: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Survey Description
For each survey,
information
is provided
in four pages:
description,
content,
documentation,
and dataset
![Page 31: Open Sesame: Open Data, Data Liberation and Opportunities for Librarians](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052820/54b608cf4a7959b73b8b457d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Conclusions
• Data need to be transformed from their raw state to make them more useable
• The key to success for IHSN, ADP is standards based tools and out reach
• Tools and infrastructure for managing data can be shared (tool kit etc. are open source)
• Data and information specialists need to work with data producers in this process
• There is a role for professional librarians in making data more accessible

Données sources Au niveau municipal, les données sont accessibles indirectement sur le site de la ville de Montréal. En d'autres termes, ces données n'ont pas été prévues pour être utilisées de manière directe mais sont affichées sur une carte dans la section Info-Travaux. Au niveau provinciale, les données viennent du Ministère des transports du Québec et de son service Québec 511. Là aussi le MTQ se démarque de ses homologues canadiens en étant a priori le premier à proposer des données GPS pour la localisation des chantiers.

more than the presence of a ramp.
RAPLIQ audits a building on several
dozen criteria important to people
with different disabilities.

Nunaliit iPad Data Capture app Geomatics and Cartographic Research Centre
• Community: • Wished access was faster and atlas and data
were housed in community
• Wished adding content was easier
• Needed flexibility for types of data and metadata to be saved and how to present it
• Nunaliit: • Distributed network of replicating nodes,
including nodes in communities, and on mobile
• Simplified data collection app replaces half a dozen devices for offline data collection
• Document oriented database with data and applications loosely connected via flexible schema system
