NAHSL Conference 2012: Lightning Presentations

Based on the positive response last year, the NAHSL conference will once again offer a Lightning Presentations session in lieu of a traditional print poster session. Similar to the MLA Ignite Sessions, the Lightning Presentation format allows each presenter exactly 5 minutes to speak, accompanied by 20 slides that automatically advance every 15 seconds.

Topics for Lightning Presentations may include anything related to health, librarianship, technology, or any subject related to the conference theme. Presentations will be selected via a competitive review process.

The Lightning Presentations session at the 2012 NAHSL Conference will be held Monday October 29, 2012 from 4:15 to 5:15 pm.
