Poster Sessions
- The EJC will provide each presenter with a bulletin board on which to display your poster. You are responsible for bringing your poster with you, or sending it to the Minneapolis Hilton – to your attention – no later than Monday, May 5, 2008. The address is: Hilton Minneapolis, c/o GUEST NAME (hotel guest), 1001 Marquette Avenue, Minneapolis, MN, 55403-2440. Also, please bring the poster with you 30 minutes before the poster session opens on Wednesday, May 7.
- There will be a central table for supporting materials from all poster presenters. If you plan to have handouts, please send a minimum of 150 copies. (We will not provide duplicating facilities.)
- You can collect business cards, distribute yours and otherwise connect with people interested in your work.
- Posters should be 6 feet wide by 4 feet tall, on laminated paper.
- The poster should clearly and concisely state the theme of your presentation, such as a statement of your topic or problem, major findings, conclusions or strategies to be discussed, or any other pertinent information. The sequence of information on the poster should be logical and clear in order for a participant who just walks by and reads your poster to have a clear sense of your presentation.
- To the extent possible, use lists, phrases, bullets, charts, drawings, or photographs instead of full text blocks. This is will be more appealing to the eye for participants and full-text material can be included on the table for participants to read or review or take with them.
- Use color on your poster for visual appeal.
- The figures below reflect an example of what you might prepare. The top "banner" should include the program/project, author names, and other identifying information. The poster should read from top left to bottom right. The title should be legible from 8 feet away, the remaining words from four or five feet away. The flow of information should be from top to bottom/left to right.
- Equipment using electrical support or other audio-visual equipment MAY NOT BE USED.
- You must bring any supplies you may need (tape, felt-tipped markers, tacks, etc.) as we will be unable to provide supplies to the presenters during the conference.
- The poster must NOT be a commercial/product sales poster. Any poster that is deemed to be a commercial advertisement will be removed from the Conference as unacceptable.
- In order to share posters with conference attendees and others post-conference presenters must leave posters with conference staff for duplication. At your request, posters will be returned to you.
- Posters must be submitted ahead of time (via electronic submission) for approval, by April 25th, 2008. Submit posters by . You will be responsible for ensuring that the actual physical poster arrives at the hotel safely (see Guideline #1).
