  \nPresentation Sharing and Permissions<\/strong><\/p>\n

  In today’s age of social media, the Program Committee would like to share some wise advice from Julie Claussen, President-Elect of the AFS Science Communications Section, to keep in mind when preparing your presentation. Julie notes, “I am seeing permission slides more and more at conferences \u2013 Sharing presentation information on Social Media is welcome by some, and not by others.\u00a0 Attached are two slides that all speakers can use to express whether they do or do not want people in the audience to take photos or post photos from their talk, and to convey how to credit or tag those photos if they are OK with posting photos.”<\/p>\n
