Library Cataloging
The latest American Libraries has a section on staff development, "The Care and Feeding of Speakers and the Spoken-To". The 1st article gives some tips to speakers. These I've seen countless times before, but they do bear repeating since people still ignore them. The other piece, "A View from the Podium" by Janet Swan Hill is something I've not seen before and information we can use. Volunteers, who change every few years, arrange many of our conferences and meetings. How to treat the invited speaker is something not taught in our MLS program and it is rare to find new officer guidelines. Here they are. This is a piece that should be copied and placed in every officer packet in all of our organizations.
