Where do we come from
In March we’re going to meet again for a couple of days of lively discussions on how to build library labs.
Follow the discussion on Twitter #buildlibrarylabs
But where do we come from?
attendees <- read_tsv("~/Desktop/attendees.tsv")Countries
attendees %>%
ggplot() +
theme_economist() +
geom_bar(aes(x = Country)) +
coord_flip() +
xlab("") +
ylab("Number of attendees")
Jobs
attendees %>%
count(`Job Title`) %>%
arrange(desc(n))Well, then what about job categories?
attendees %>%
mutate(title = str_extract(tolower(`Job Title`), "manager|director|curator|librarian|professor|researcher|coordinator|head|lead|specialist|advisor|officer|engineer|programmer|consultant")) %>%
select(Country, title, `Job Title`, Company) %>%
ggplot() +
theme_economist() +
geom_bar(aes(x = title)) +
coord_flip() +
xlab("Job category") +
ylab("Number of attendees")
Some people like word clouds for this sort of data
attendees %>%
mutate(title = str_extract(tolower(`Job Title`), "manager|director|curator|librarian|professor|researcher|coordinator|head|lead|specialist|advisor|officer|engineer|programmer|consultant")) %>%
select(Country, title, `Job Title`, Company) %>%
count(title, sort = TRUE) %>%
with(wordcloud(title, n, min.freq=1,colors = c("#999999", "#E69F00", "#56B4E9","#56B4E9")))
