Last weekend, ALIA West held their abstracts and presentations session to help you prepare to present at next year’s New Librarians Symposium. The session was held in Perth and live-streamed via the ALIAWest Facebook page.
Tips included knowing your audience and scope, practising your presentation, and of course, being prepared for technology issues!
