Subject: Seminar: Introduction to the Florida Census RDC (Tuesday June 15, 2021 at 1p.m.)

Dear Colleagues:

I am pleased to announce an informational seminar regarding our new Federal Statistical Research Data Center. See the attached flyer.

Dr. Jacyln Hall of the University of Florida will give an hour-long seminar on Tuesday June 15, 2021 at 1 p.m., where she will introduce the new Florida Research Data Center and discuss the resources it can potentially make available to FSU researchers.  Registration and Zoom information is included on the flyer as well.

Please feel free to forward this announcement to others, including graduate students who might be interested in using FLRDC data.

For purposes of understanding what the FLRDC is, and how it came to be, I have included a previous email announcement below.

Best regards,

Mark
