Recording from the June 7, 2022, ACRL Digital Badges Interest Group: Micro-credentials in Economic Data Literacy and FRED® (Federal Reserve Economic Data): A Professional Development Badge for Librarians.
The Library Services and the Economic Education team at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis have developed a free micro-credential program on economic data literacy for librarians. In this presentation we provide a working definition of economic data literacy, linking it to seven foundational competencies. We describe the structure of the program, showcasing one of its modules to illustrate the workflow of participants. We conclude by summarizing lessons learned and feedback we received.
