[Michlib-l] MeL Minute - Create custom data tables and graphs

[Borrelli, Eunice (MDE)]

Hello all,

Creating custom comparison data tables and graphs for countries of the world, Canadian provinces, and states is quick and easy when you and your patrons use the MeL database CultureGrams<http://www.galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-proq.php?database=CULTURE>.  Each of the four CultureGrams<http://www.galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-proq.php?database=CULTURE> editions includes the Graphs and Tables tools with varying categories offered based on which edition you're in.  In the World Edition, select up to 50 countries and from over 22 categories (and sub-categories) to create comparisons.  Interested in comparing the unemployment rate among Scandinavian countries?  Or infant mortality in Southeast Asian countries?  Both are quickly accomplished with just a few clicks.  Tables can be printed or downloaded.  In the States Edition, select any number of states and from categories (and sub-categories) including area, population, economy, education, and other.  The Canadian Provinces edition choices include all 14 provinces and seven categories (and sub-categories).  The Kids Edition includes world countries and nine categories (and sub-categories).  Data sources are listed below each created data table.  Data tables and graphs make a powerful statement in reports and presentations and are quickly and reliably created using the MeL database CultureGrams<http://www.galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-proq.php?database=CULTURE> .  Michigan residents or Michigan library access only.
