Abstract
You’ve just been given your first library teaching assignment. You may be new to the library profession or a mid-career librarian taking on your first teaching role. Do you panic at the thought of standing up in front of the class? For introverts the prospect of teaching or public speaking can feel especially daunting. While teaching may take you out of your comfort zone, it is possible to develop effective strategies to manage the process. In this presentation, hear from an experienced instruction librarian (and self-described introvert) who has been successfully teaching for more than 15 years.
