Principles of effective communication
Effective communication principles include establishing rapport with an audience, using positive emotions, avoiding grammatical errors, and minimizing barriers. Rapport is strengthened by making eye contact, using hand gestures, and presenting information in multiple ways. A smile is the most suitable emotion. Background noise can hinder understanding.
Principles of effective communication
Effective communication principles include using clear speech, hand gestures, engaging the audience through questions, avoiding barriers like background noise, and presenting information in multiple ways.

Barriers to communication
Background noise, lack of communication, and physical barriers are examples of barriers to effective communication. Background noise can distract people and make it hard to concentrate. Lack of communication occurs when people do not provide enough details, while physical barriers like distance or environment make face-to-face communication difficult. Other barriers include loss of information during transmission from one person to another, poor listening skills, poor speaking abilities, cultural differences in communication styles, and using technical language that some people do not understand. These barriers can lead to misunderstandings and make effective communication challenging.

Back by popular demand! Each year, a number of new reports about public libraries are produced by organizations like Pew, OCLC, Library Journal, The Aspen Institute, and others.

Each panelist will share a summary of a report they believe is significant and discuss how they have used or will use the information at their library. Attendees will be encouraged to share other reports and insights that have mattered to them, too!
