How do I access the Data Visualization lab in the Zar room of Crerar Library?

The Zar room and its visualization equipment can be reserved for events, classes, or visualization work by contacting our Help Desk. More information regarding RCC’s visualization facilities can be found on RCC's Data Visualization page.

How do I cite RCC in my publications and talks?

We ask that an acknolwedgment be given to the RCC in any presentation or publication of results that were made possible by RCC resources.
