Proposals will be evaluated on the basis of their interest to Ohio libraries and library staff, their potential to spark ideas for application in local settings, connection to the conference theme, originality, and clarity.

Poster presenters will be responsible for their own travel costs, but the registration fee will be waived for one (1) presenter per session. All attendees and presenters MUST REGISTER. Registration includes lunch and the opportunity to attend other programs throughout the day. Parking at the Fawcett Center is free.

Each poster session presenter will be provided with a 6-foot table only. Presenters should bring all materials needed for their displays, including display boards and supplies such as tape, push pins, markers, etc.

Provision of hand-outs is encouraged, as are business cards and sign-up sheets allowing people to request additional information. Presenters should make copies ahead of time.

Materials presented should be easily read at a distance of four feet. Lettering should be large enough (about 3/8" high) to be easily read. Simplicity and legibility are more important than artistic design, although effective visual design will enhance the display.

There will be no capability for electrical or electronic equipment such as computers or audio visual equipment. Additionally, Internet connections are not available.
