  1. Participation in the Conference as a Presenter

To participate in the conference as a presenter, applicants must submit an extended abstract structured as follows:

  • Presenter’s first name and surname.
  • Academic degree, academic title, position and place of work (alternatively, for students: bachelor’s / master’s / doctoral student, year of study and educational institution).
  • Presenter’s email address.
  • Title of the presentation.
  • Main text of the extended abstract, including: definition of the research area; statement of the aim or research question; key research methods; principal research findings; and conclusions. The main text of the abstract must be between 200 and 400 words.
  • A GAIDeT declaration on the use of artificial intelligence tools in conducting the research. The declaration can be generated at: https://panbibliotekar.github.io/gaidet-declaration/index-uk.html
  • Students must provide information about their academic supervisor.
  • Where appropriate, authors may also provide the following information:
  • Bibliographic details of the author’s previous publication — if the conference presentation concerns research whose results have already been published.
  • Information about research co-authors, if applicable.
  • A list of key sources consulted during the research. This part of the presentation abstract is optional and may be included at the author’s discretion.

The Conference Organising Committee will select presenters for the section sessions based on its review of the submitted extended abstracts. Authors whose presentations are not selected for a section session will be able to present a poster or attend the conference without presenting.

  1. Participation in the Conference with a Poster Presentation

An in-person poster session will be held for conference participants in Kharkiv. To present your research, please email your poster in PDF format by 1 October. The conference organisers will arrange poster printing. Email: teachers@karazin.ua

When preparing a poster presentation, please comply with the following mandatory requirements:

  • Poster size — A0 (841 × 1189 mm, portrait orientation only) or A1 (594 × 841 mm, portrait or landscape orientation).
  • Body text font size — at least 24 pt.
  • Language — Ukrainian or English.
  • If artificial intelligence tools were used in conducting the research or preparing the poster, this must be disclosed.

Our recommendations for preparing a poster presentation:

  • Sans-serif fonts such as Arial, Calibri, Aptos, Montserrat and Noto Sans generally work best on posters.
  • Combine textual and visual information effectively. Ideally, text should occupy no more than 30–40 per cent of the poster area. Present the remaining information visually using high-quality illustrations, flowcharts, formulae, graphs, photographs and similar elements.
  • Present information about the research aim, methods or methodology, findings and their place in the current body of academic knowledge concisely (!).
  • Include a QR code on the poster that allows conference participants to open an online folder containing supplementary research materials, your contact details, key sources consulted, or a copy of the poster itself, so that participants can revisit your study later.

Please note that we will not be able to provide a remote option for the poster session.

  1. Participation in the Conference as an Attendee

The conference proceedings will not be published. Therefore, participants wishing to attend the conference without presenting need only complete the registration form. In this case, no presentation abstract or poster is required.
