Posting Presentation Materials on the IRA Website

 

To post your materials to the IRA website, please follow these steps:

  1. Prepare your materials in a commonly used digital format—PDF, PowerPoint, Microsoft Word, etc. Please note that all materials must be submitted electronically; IRA is unable to provide file preparation or scanning services.

  2. Ensure that the final size of any file is no more than 4 MB. Larger files can be slow to download and thereby cause inconvenience to website visitors. To ensure reasonable file sizes, consider omitting color from your PDF document and any video or audio from your slide show.

  3. Ensure that your materials contain no material from another copyrighted source that is included without permission from the copyright holder. Files that reproduce copyrighted content cannot be posted without such permission.

  4. Remember to put your name, contact information, and presentation title on your materials. These materials will be downloaded by numerous website visitors. If your name is not included with them, visitors will quickly lose track of the source of the material.

  5. Proofread your material. IRA staff is unable to provide editorial services and will not edit or change your files in any way.

  6. E-mail your materials as file attachments to webmaster@reading.org. In the body of your e-mail message, indicate which session and conference the materials are being submitted for. Include your name, presentation title, and the date and time of your presentation. If your presentation is part of a larger meeting—e.g., one paper in a multi-paper symposium—include the title of the entire meeting along with that of your own presentation.

  7. A link to available presentation materials will appear on the conference pages linked from http://www.reading.org/association/meetings/index.html. Presentation materials will remain accessible for six months after the presentation date.
