The document provides guidance on creating effective posters for research presentations. It recommends that posters be 4x3 or 3x4 feet in size, include standard identifying information, and have sections for the title, abstract, objectives, methodology, results and discussion, conclusion, and references. Posters should use simple, clear language with short sentences and highlight key results visually through charts and graphs rather than large blocks of text. Font size and type choices are also addressed to maximize readability. The overall goal is to stimulate interest, discussion, and feedback on the research.

Doing More with Less:The Crisis, Cooperation, and the Librarykramsey
The current financial situation has forced many libraries to pay unprecedented attention to how they are organized to achieve their missions. One common thread emerging in the responses is cooperation: those needing to cut costs sharply are finding that they cannot do so incrementally but must instead transform their activities in ways that spread cost and diffuse risk among many partners. The talk will cover some of the opportunities available for transformative institutional collaboration among libraries, including collaborative, open source software development as well as the challenges facing those attempting to collaborate. It will pay particular attention to the question of how to collaborate strategically: that is, how to ensure that collaboration retains or increases a library’s ability to pursue mission, enhance agility, increase sovereignty, and improve sustainability.
