The Stanford SOLAR Center in a coordinated effort with the AGU-SPA Education Committee is developing a Presentation Bank to
provide AGU Space Physics and Aeronomy scientists with collected materials \& imagery to present Sun-Earth related science in
their field of expertise to the general public. The presentations can also be used for other audiences such as school
groups, science museums, planetariums and the press. Working closely with the Education Committee and SPA scientists we are
enhancing the existing SPA "slideset" into a prototype demonstration of the Presentation Bank. Our focus is to use up to date
"best of" imagery and video to excite an audience about current research topics. By following a peer review process, the
best and most useful collection of imagery will be produced to meet the needs of AGU scientists. We will share samples of
slideset imagery and discuss details and infrastructure of the presentation bank and how scientists can best use this
resource.
