Storytelling is a vital strategy for communicating impact and justifying
future investments. Powerful and effective stories allow us to create a
roadmap that weaves together information and emotion. This webinar will
provide an orientation to storytelling that centers cultural humility
while leveraging storytelling dynamics, including how to practice and
refine an impactful story with a live audience. Participants will learn
the techniques of story construction based on three classic narrative
structures, with roots in folklore and narratology,
and explore examples of data stories told by and about libraries. This
is an opportunity to build confidence in the ability to recognize and
craft a meaningful and memorable story.
