SPSS and SAS are statistical analysis software packages available on the library's Graduate Workstations and in some of the BCTC labs. Due to increased pricing and a contractual dispute with SPSS, the most current version of SPSS on campus is 11.5 (the most recent release is 15.0). The SPA lab in 17 Lex used to have v.14.0, but had to roll back to v.11.5 due to the dispute. (I checked the SPA lab computers.) We are not sure when the disupte will be solved. This is a CUNY wide issue, and a committee is working on access to a more up to date version.
The Graduate Workstations have SAS v.8, but it has recently expired. I sent a Help Desk request to update to v.9, and hope this will happen soon. SAS v.9 is available in the 6th floor library building lab and the CIS lab.
SPSS 11.5 is also on the newer 3 day and hour laptops (thank you to Eric for sending this info.).
