Ahead of Donald Trump's inauguration today (20 January), Poynter's Kristen Hare has collated a resource guide for covering the event, and steps journalists should take to protect themselves and their work.

The guide features advice from the National Press Photographers Association and the Committee to Protect Journalists among others. They recommend reporters work in pairs and have portable mobile chargers and remember their rights when reporting from public places.

The article also provides contact details of organisations that have set up hotlines for journalists to report abuse and ask for legal assistance.
