Statistics Databases
- American FactFinderDefunct search interface and information page for the United States Census Bureau. Officially replaced by data.census.gov. The Census Bureau offers a chart listing what is currently available on data.census.gov, and recent release notes (PDF) may also be helpful. Data tools, visualizations, courses, and more remain available at census.gov/data.html.
"How To" Videos
Researching statistics can be challenging. If you are using a resource that is not intuitive, consider getting guidance from an expert. Recent "how to" videos and webinars from reputable entities can be invaluable.
Since government web sites may update their search interfaces frequently, be cautious of older webinars. For example, American FactFinder was updated in January 2013. So be cautious in choosing webinars created before 2013.
