Professional development is important in most library settings in order to earn or maintain credentials. Academic librarians look for opportunities to earn tenure and special librarians look for ways to focus their training on a narrow subject area. Regardless of their reason for looking for professional development opportunities, librarians of all types will find satisfaction in contributing to the profession at a higher level. Participating in professional conversations and decision-making that impacts others in the field, and sharing knowledge through publishing and presenting, are great ways to become better librarians. This presentation helps librarians get started, from establishing a brand and name recognition in their area of expertise to writing winning proposals for both publication and presentation. It covers how to conquer fears of public speaking, how to make presentations more dynamic, and recommends places to publish.]]>
