REQUESTING GRAPHICS:
If you have a project that will need graphics, please call or email the Graphics Office as far in advance as possible to discuss it.If the project is a sign or poster, you will be asked to submit a Sign Request form. Please download and print the form linked below, fill it out, have it signed by your Division Director, and send it via campus mail to the Graphics Office in Hornbake Library. Also, please send via email attachment all text, images, logos, or other elements needed for the piece.
Sign Request Form (.pdf) SIGN TEMPLATES:
Some commonly requested signs are available as templates so that you can make them yourself. Use these templates when you need a standard 8½ x 11” sign. Download the template below that best matches your needs. If the wording is fine as-is, use the pdf file. If you need to change the text, download the MS Word file, open up the document in MS Word and make any changes you need. Print the sign at your location or at the Copy Center and display it on your service desk in a plastic sign holder.If you need to make an 8½ x 11” sign other than the ones shown below, use the “Out of Order” sign in either portrait or landscape format as a starting point and alter the text as needed.
If you need a larger version of the sign or need it mounted on foamcore suitable for attaching to a wall, alter the wording on the template as you need it, save the document, and submit it as an attachment with the Sign Request Form (above).
