As teaching librarians, we are always "on stage". Like actors and other performers, our ability to communicate our message depends not only on content but on how well we present ourselves:
- What can we learn from the theatrical professions to enhance our teaching?
- What techniques can we use to connect with our audience?
This practical program will focus on ways to improve library instruction through better presentation skills.
Speakers:
Monika Antonelli Reference Librarian University of North Texas Libraries |

Joe Dempsey Chicago Actor American Theater Company member Second City National Touring Company, former member |
