About the JBFL Special Issue on Data
Data of all kinds play a large role in business and finance librarianship. This special issue of JBFL aims to explore the practical and creative ways that business and finance librarians are teaching with data, navigating complex business data sources, promoting data literacy, assessing their services and collections with data, managing their data and how they are incorporating data into their work overall.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) original research, non-empirical papers and case studies on: innovative approaches to business instruction using data; best practices for managing data and building data collections; reviews of datasets and databases key to business and finance research; and other topics related to the intersection of data and business & finance librarianship.
