Speak to Impress: Public Speaking Skills for Librarians and

Archivists


10:00AM-12:00PM

Public speaking is a vital skill in any profession. As librarians and

archivists, we participate in meetings, provide instruction to the

public, pitch to clients, and address colleagues regularly. Effective

communication is key to conveying our messages, whether they

inform, persuade, or direct.

Content matters, and so does delivery. In order to maximize our

credibility and showcase our expertise in the workplace, attention

must also be paid to preparation, non-verbal cues, and more.

Join us for this interactive 2-hour session that will provide

practical tips for speaking before an audience. No previous

experience or knowledge is required. Attendees will have an

opportunity to put these tips into practice and gain constructive

feedback from a supportive audience during the workshop.

Who should attend: Anyone interested in becoming more

comfortable speaking before an audience.

By the end of this program, participants will:

▪ Learn tips for communicating more effectively

▪ Gain more confidence with speaking before an audience

Presenter: Karen Erani

A member of Toastmasters International, Karen is active and a

former officer in Brooklyn’s Best Toastmasters, where she gives

speeches and earned Competent Leader status. Her excellence in

speaking was recognized when she won an Area 21 Humorous

Speech Contest.

This interactive workshop is limited to 18 participants and no more

than 2 participants per institution.
