This is part one of a two-part series. Excel for Technical Services: Intermediate is the companion to this webinar.
This is the first of a two-part session showing features of Excel that can make data easier to both read and analyze. The presenter will walk through each step using a report generated from the ILS. The session will focus on viewing lists of items and ways to manipulate a list for better readability. It will show tips that could make Excel spreadsheets easier to read for those who don’t necessarily work in Excel regularly.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:
- Create filters in Excel and use them to count and sum subsets of a spreadsheet
- Filter a column in a spreadsheet by text, number, or color
- Create a pivot table
Who Should Attend
Paraprofessionals and librarians. It is meant for people who don’t necessarily work in Excel regularly.
