Resources for Symposium Presenters

A wide range of resources to support Symposium presenters are available. Are you creating a poster? A map? A Powerpoint presentation? Would you like help with the research process or making a bibliography? And would you like to practice public speaking or run through your presentation? LIS and the CTLR can help you prepare for the Symposium.
