The Library has numerous resources to assist you with managing your statistical data.
SAS (Statistical Analysis Software) is a software system used for data management and basic statistical procedures. SAS 9.2 is available on five computers at the South Campus (main) Library, and – for those who need access 24/7 – SAS 9.2 is also installed on three labeled computers at the North Campus Branch Library.
If you need help with SAS, the SAS Guide on the Library Web site collects many resources about SAS into a single list for your convenience. The guide links to electronic and print books, as well as Web resources.
The guide also links to the online version of the short course of Alan Elliott’s Introduction to SAS offered by the Division of Biostatistics. The South Campus Library has two copies of the course workbook, Research Analysis using SAS for Windows. The call number is QA 276.4 E451 2009; one copy is in the regular book collection, and the other copy is on Academic Reserve at the Information Desk.
Another statistical software program, SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences), is also available at the South Campus Library. The SPSS Guide can provide you with basic assistance.
