Many databases accessible in the Library collection are comprised of articles, abstracts, or, in some cases, ebooks and video. In contrast, this database consists of statistical facts and figures delivered as eye-catching, straight-to-the-point graphs and charts.<\/p>\n

Statista uses information from the U.S. Census Bureau, Pew Research Center, Gallup, Nielson, ComScore, and more than 18,000 other sources to build relevant, simple data sets and reports.\u00a0 While most results center on business-related topics, students with any research subject will be blown away by the wealth of information on media, society, and politics.<\/p>\n

\"statistic_id243911_advice-to-us-high-school-students-from-us-graduates-2012\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Statista also features over 1,000 industry reports and more than 3,000 market studies, including market forecasts for 42 countries and over 400 industries.\u00a0 It also includes hundreds of infographics, painting visually appealing pictures out of complicated data.\u00a0 Statista knows that seeing the data can be much easier\u2014and more convincing\u2014than simply reading the numbers on a page.<\/p>\n

Statista makes it easier to share that information, too.\u00a0 Download charts and graphs as Powerpoint slides, Excel charts, image files, or PDFs.\u00a0 Every chart displays the source of the information, as well as a citation generator* to easily cut and paste references into your bibliography.<\/p>\n

To find statistics on a wealth of topics, use the simple search interface on the home screen or browse by topic, industry, country or digital markets.\u00a0 Filter results by publication, category, or region.\u00a0 Each result also recommends similar statistics to keep you supplied with more paths to finding facts.<\/p>\n

So get your facts straight by heading straight for Statista.\u00a0 You can also contact the original fact-checkers, your local librarians, at askalibrarian@atu.edu<\/a><\/strong>, for help with this database, any database, data, or bases.<\/p>\n

*Always check automatic citation generators against official style guides.\u00a0<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
