Q. What is the CMOS position on how to reference the titles of posters (such as those presented at professional conferences) in the body of a document? Should the title be in quotation marks, italicized, or something else?
A. If you type “poster” into the Search box or look under “poster” in the index, you’ll find examples at CMOS 14.115 that suggest that we put such titles in quotation marks. The examples are of a PowerPoint presentation and a paper, but the treatment would be the same for a titled poster.
