Full/CE Member Cost: $25
For many people in academic libraries writing is not an option - we have to do it and we have to do it by a certain deadline on top of an already full workload. Whether it’s authoring internal reports, journal articles or entire books, the pressure can be enormous, especially for those on tenure track. Many librarians freeze under that pressure, delaying writing and publishing to the 11th hour and sometimes never getting it done at all.
Overcome procrastination, remove roadblocks and create a map for successful completion of your paper. In this webinar you’ll learn how to break down your writing project into manageable steps with deadlines and learn simple approaches and techniques for sticking to your schedule. Whether you’re just beginning the publishing process or are a more seasoned writer stuck on a project that needs to get out the door, this webinar will help you get going and stay on track.
This workshop is not just for academics it is for anyone struggling with writing.
