Definitely Highcharts. I have used it on a few projects, and it is fantastic. It's free for non-commercial use. Great documentation and support. It also has plugins for several web app frameworks like Rails, Django, Yii, etc. Very helpful if you are going to use one of those to build your dashboard.

Not as fancy as D3, but easier. You pass data to the chart API and it does the heavy lifting for you. https://developers.google.com/chart/ -Kelly Zhu Web Services Librarian University of Central Oklahoma -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Eric Phetteplace Sent: 2014年9月19日 9:44 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Visualization libraries for lib data I've used D3 to build charts for a similar data dashboard. It's maybe a little less plug-and-play than other charting libraries but has tremendous adoption, is really flexible. http://d3js.org/ Best, Eric On Fri, Sep 19, 2014 at 7:25 AM, Michel, Jason <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hello all! > > We're in the process of centralizing all of our disparate data points > (circ, door counts, chat ref, in-person interactions, db stats, > instruction, web analytics, social analytics) into a single DB.
