This was a good introductory resource to help the reader think of initial ways they can implement accessibility into poster presentations. That being said, the document did not provide much detail or show examples of accessible posters.

This was great to see how posters should be thought out and planned to be presented to a wide variety of audiences.

This resource confused me. The title suggests it will help with poster accessibility, but the content focuses mostly on PowerPoint and presentation accessibility. I know that most posters are made using PowerPoint and presentation is key, but I would have liked to see material specific to poster design.

"...Even though I was flunking English because I couldn't spell; in my high school year book under ambitions I had written 'Author'. When I went off to college I ran into a guy at the University of Oregon named Ralph Salisbury who was my first creative writing instructor and he turned all the lights on for me. He was the first teacher in all my years who actually said I had talent. Some people don't know this, but I have dyslexia."
