It seems infographics are all the rage these days. You see them (both good & bad) all over the web and in publications like Wired, Time, Newsweek, the New York Times, USA Today, and others. Well, you can see a fine example of a data visualization being used for library advocacy at this site: http://www.ala.org/research/plftas/2011_2012/weatheringthestorm. It’s based on data from the 2011-2012 Public Library Funding & Technology Access Study I wrote about earlier on this blog. Take a look! It is cleverly executed.
