ICPSR's Summer Byte
As Summer 2019 begins to draw to a close, ICPSR is sizzling with activity
amid the second session of the ICPSR Summer Program, the transformation of
our data management systems continuing, and active planning for the
upcoming Biennial ICPSR Meeting! Let us pause a moment to share your
Consortium updates in the 2019 summer edition of *DataBytes*.

data stories while utilizing ICPSR’s resources. *Registration closes on
