When you log into the virtual conference, navigate to the Speaker Lounge to enter your session. If you are not registered for the conference, you will enter your session via the Speaker Service Center. The link to enter your session will not be available until October 20.
Do I have to upload my handouts twice, once via the Speaker Service Center and again in Big Marker?
Yes. Uploading via the Speaker Service Center will make your handouts available via the online schedule. Uploading them in Big Marker will make them available during the presentation. Uploading handouts to each platform makes them more available to conference attendees and the handouts in the online schedule will be available after the virtual conference closes down.
What is the role of moderators?
An ILA Conference Program Committee member or ILA staff member has been assigned as a moderator to each session. Moderators will be present to assist in the following ways:
Assist during the 1 hour prep period in your session room.
Begin the session recording.
Indicate the start of the session by welcoming the audience and thanking any sponsors
Hand the session off to presenters to introduce themselves
After that, the moderator(s) will be there throughout the presentation as backup support if needed. There will also be an eShow support technician in the room to help manage any support needed by presenters or audience members.
If you are doing Q&A during or at the end of your session we ask that you facilitate those portions. We recommend discussing with your co-presenters how you will monitor chat for questions and field them. If you are a solo presenter, and wish to have help managing the chat for Q&A, please let your moderator know during the one hour prep period to work out logistics.
