Story Maps are an easy to use powerful tool for presentation of all kinds of information to a public audience. They are great for classroom projects. In this workshop, we will compare the ESRI and JS versions of StoryMap and learn how to use Story Maps incorporating a variety of media types and formats. <a href="https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/6982534" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" title="https://bookings.lib.msu.edu/event/6982534">Register here!</a> Geocoding: Creating Maps and Spatial Data from Addresses Friday, October 23rd | 3:30-5:00 This workshop will discuss geocoding, which is the process of giving addresses spatial information so they can be used as a dataset in a GIS.
