Durden, DavidKoivisto, JosephPresentation given at Show Me the Numbers: Storytelling with Data and Visualizations, a one-day conference of the Maryland Chapter of the Special Libraries Association hosted by the University of Maryland Libraries on October 12, 2017.Institutional, archival, and cultural heritage collections often rely upon quantitative measures to defend their continued existence and value.

These discrepancies are presented graphically to demonstrate the often unreliable relationships between sources and narratives.en-USdata visualizationuser interactiondigital repositoriesPresentation
