LMT is published 10 times per year and press releases are due:

• CalendarInclude the date of the event, program title, sponsor(s), brief description of the program and speakers, location, applicable continuing education credits and contact information. For maximum exposure, Calendar releases should be submitted at least 12 weeks prior to your event. The Calendar is printed in LMT on a space availability basis. E-mail Calendar submissions to Kelly Fessel Carr.

• NewsBriefsReleases, including people news, are published on a space availability basis at LMT's discretion. If applicable they can be accompanied by a photograph (see Submitting Photographs below). All submissions are subject to editing. E-mail submissions to Kelly Fessel Carr.

• Today's ProductsAs a service to manufacturers and suppliers who make LMT possible through their advertising support, we publish product releases in our Today's Products section at no charge. In fairness to our Display and Marketplace advertisers, non-advertisers pay a service fee for their releases: $200 for the release and a black and white photo. There is an additional $150 fee to print a photo in color. Product releases should run approximately 75 words in length and may be accompanied by a photograph or line drawing (see Submitting Photographs below). All releases are subject to editing for clarity and/or space considerations; promotional copy will be deleted. E-mail submissions to Kelly Fessel Carr.

• File type: .tif format is preferred.
• Resolution: Photos must be at least 266 dpi/ppi; line art should be 1100dpi. Although we will size the photo to fit our layout, your image should be a minimum of 2" x 2" in size.
• Color: Four-color images must be in CMYK - not RGB, index or lab-format.
