The written word is our primary tool for communication – with colleagues, administrators, stakeholders, and users. Poor use of words can lead to misunderstandings and inefficiencies.
Writing effectively will help you be a stronger colleague, manager, and librarian.
In this book, you will learn how to:
  • Define your audience and your primary messages
  • Simplify your writing so that it is succinct and understandable
  • Structure your written content so that it is most usable and accessible to your audience
  • Approach different forms of writing in a way that is most effective to getting your message across
  • Establish a voice and tone that reflects the identity of your organization and yourself as a professional
  • The book covers writing for both print and Web-based publications and is aimed at all types of libraries.
