Presentation Guidelines

50-minute sessions

Presentation sessions are 主动学习 opportunities that are practical and relevant to the challenges and user needs of academic libraries.

Each session may include 1 - 3主持人. Allow at least 5 minutes in your session for questions from attendees.

• Present brief history/background of the topic
• Avoid extensive institution demographics
• Cover practical, applicable content
• 避免行话
• Limit amount of text on each slide, adding visual content
• Practice the presentation

主持人 are encouraged to provide supplemental materials (URL to electronic "handouts" or upload presentation files).

15-minute lightning round

Have a great idea, procedure, product/service, but not enough content for an entire session? Consider being a presenter in a Lightning Round session.

Each session includes four "lightning presentations" back to back. This doesn't mean presenters talk fast, but presents the topic for a maximum of 15 minutes, with time for questions at the end of the fourth lightning round.

Each presentation is made by 一个个体. Avoid too much lead-up (history, background) to your main point. Focus on the main topic.

Bring a physical handout or a URL to an electronic "handout" in case attendees want more information or have questions to ask you. Please bring your presentation on a jump drive for dependable access should technical difficulties occur.

TIP: Practice the presentation and time yourself to stay comfortably within 15 minutes.
