Course: Competitive Intelligence and Data Mining
This course supports and provides a structure for fact-based decision making. Knowledge workers in libraries have unprecedented access to vast stores of data as the information technology industry improves performance, storage capabilities and expands the functionality of database software and insight generation tools.
