5. Program
Barring the most minor of changes, the final conference program is attached. No hard copies of the program will be provided but it will be posted on the CASID website so you can access it online at any time during Congress. Thank you for your understanding.

6. Room allocations

CASID's rooms are very close together in Buchanan (BUCH) buildings A and D in the northwest corner of the UBC campus. You can find the Congress 2019 map online here and a PDF on page 18 of the conference program.

7. A/V

Presenting with powerpoint? While not required, all presentation rooms are equipped with a standard A/V package: computer with internet, projector and screen or a display, and DVD playback. Arrive early to upload your presentation and have it ready before the session begins.

8. Are you listed as a Chair on any of the panels?

Please check the program if you have volunteered to Chair a session to confirm the time and location. Your job as Chair includes the following:

  • Welcome the audience
  • Introduce the presenters on the panel by name (titles of papers often change so the presenters may wish to provide that information to you)
  • Indicate if there is a change in the order of presentations (sometimes changes are made when people have to leave early, etc. so check with your panelists before the session begins to confirm the order of presentations and notify the audience of any changes)
  • Keep the presenters to a strict time period (evenly divided among them). Each session is 90 minutes. We recommend leaving 30 minutes for questions and discussion with the audience. Divide the remaining 60 minutes by the number of panelists (i.e., if 5 panelists, each should get 12 minutes to present)
  • If two authors are presenting the same paper, it is best to split the amount of time allocated for that presentation in half (i.e., each author presents for 6 minutes for a total of 12 minutes for the presentation)
  • The Chair’s job is to keep the presenters to the time limit. Offer two minute and/or one minute warnings to let the presenter know the time is nearly up.
  • The Chair might also consider a question to the presenters to get a conversation going. Sometimes the question can demonstrate linkages across the presentations and several panelists may respond to that initial question.
  • At the end of the 90 minutes, thank the presenters and the audience for their participation.
  • You may also wish to contact the panelists and request a copy of the papers to review in advance or as a panelist, you may wish to send the Chair a copy of your paper (this is not required). Contact list attached.

9. Congress 2019 Information and Planning your Stay
