Medical LibraryIn April our #ResourceOfTheMonth has been focusing on creating conference posters. We’ve been highlighting resources that you may find useful when designing and presenting a conference poster.
We began by highlighting a blog which has been written by Colin Purrington with some good advice for creating conference posters.
A good starting place for information about creating conference posters is Colin Purrington’s blog which can be found here https://t.co/tW47kauy0I Included in the blog are tips for designing your poster and for how you can present your poster at conferences.

Conference posters should ideally have images on them, so today we’re recommending Pixabay, which is a good source of royalty-free images if you don’t have your own images to use. Access it here: https://t.co/WNjEnnen8F

Wherever you choose to print your poster, make sure you allow enough time, as the printing service may not be able to print your work immediately.
