Italian term

Pubblicazioni e poster

Italian to English Other Printing & Publishing on someone's curriculum vitae
I'm translating a geologist's c.v. "Pubblicazioni e poster" is a new entry and I'm afraid "Publications and posters" would be too literal! here the full context:
"Pubblicazioni e poster"
1. Lazzari S., Riviello A., (1993) - "La cartografia tematica della pericolosità indotta da frane." Atti XXIX Convegno Nazionale Associazione Italiana Cartografia, Pavia, Boll. AI.C. n. 89, II parte, Bologna. (Pubblicazione n. 973 Catalogo CNR-GNDCI).

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Rachel Fell, philgoddard

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Call for papers and posters I can see no problem. I have just done a conference call.

Sorry Tom if you took umbrage - I did not think or imply for a moment that you didn't know. The quote was just an example of the contents of the link which I had checked again after you said it was dead - and it is still live.
Tom in London Jan 11, 2014:
I know.... ...what a poster is.
mlreid Jan 11, 2014:
http://www.ags.gov.ab.ca/conferences/geology-poster-ppt.html Well, Tom, it works for me - it says quote These are plotter-sized posters. However, they are readable if you print onto 11" x 17" paper. unquote for example
Tom in London Jan 11, 2014:
Dead link mireid - your link is dead !
mlreid Jan 11, 2014:
I agree with Tom. Geological posters gets lots of what seem to be eminently reliable and appropriate hits. E.g. (just for one) www.ags.gov.ab.ca/conferences/geology-poster-ppt.htm
Tom in London Jan 11, 2014:
? What's wrong with ""Publications and posters"? That's exactly what the text says. You may not like it or you may be (understandably) puzzled by it (so am I), but there's nothing you can do about that! If in doubt, ask the geologist to clarify. We can't. Although we could speculate ad infinitum....

publications and academic posters

The term posters is used regularly by academics. They display their research on a poster that is displayed usually at a conference. It is prestigious to be asked to display your poster at a conference.

You could refer to the posters as "academic posters" or simply "posters" since those who are considering his cv know that it is academic in nature.

Confirm that he or she has displayed "posters" or a single "poster".

agree philgoddard : "Academic" is not necessary, since this is a CV.

neutral Tom in London : yes - I'd avoid "academic poster". It sounds strange. Just "poster" would be enough. Though I'm still puzzled.

agree mlreid : yes - agree - used on the link I mentioned to Tom

Publications and poster presentations

If there are oral presentations, 'conference presentations' would then be more appropriate, with each entry specified as a poster or oral presentation.
