<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Title: Why Would I Use OpenRefine?</b><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Have you heard colleagues talk about “cleaning data” with OpenRefine, but were shy about asking how it’s done? Do you work with large datasets or metadata in spreadsheets like Excel or Google Sheets? OpenRefine is a free, user-friendly
tool designed to streamline data cleanup and transformation. In this session, you’ll learn how OpenRefine can help you efficiently resolve inconsistencies in data, reconcile access points with external vocabularies like LCSH, VIAF, and AAT, and enhance your
MARC records with URIs. Join us to learn how OpenRefine can simplify your work and improve data quality.<u></u><u></u></p>
