The
purpose of this guide is to acquaint the various offices, divisions, departments and
colleges at VSU with publication policies and procedures of the university. Please refer
to this guide to answer questions that may arise regarding printing and/or publishing
requests. If you still have questions, contact Publication & Design Services (PDS) in
the Office of University Relations.
With the advent of desktop publishing, which has been around
since the mid 1980s, writing and designing publications such as brochures, newsletters,
flyers, etc., is much easier. Producing electronic/digital media has been greatly
simplified. Making the production of materials easier is great, but the downside is that
not everyone is a designer or has had training and/or experience in producing materials. |
Consequently, materials produced by the various colleges, departments,
divisions and offices often have a look unto themselves that may or may not be consistent
and in harmony with that of the rest of VSU. As publications are one of the key marketing
components of the university, it is important that they be used effectively. It is
important to remember that the university must present a consistent, uniform and
professional image. |
