Q. How do we get our content up on the Library's media walls?

Two 8 - screen media walls are located on the 1st and 2nd floors of the TFDL. These walls are available for booking in consultation with LCR IT.

Purpose

• Highlight, support, promote University of Calgary events, exhibitions, creative endeavors
• Support innovative collaborative efforts
• Showcase LCR collections
• Maximize the use of the technology including support of research initiatives

Procedures

• Bookings will be placed after a consultative meeting with the IT Generalist or designate and suitable digital files are submitted to the IT Generalist. Initial consultation should be requested via email to mediawalls@ucalgary.samanage.com
• Digital files are submitted 10 working days prior to placement on walls
• Describe event or story with pertinent information (date, time, location) as appropriate
• Use few words and large fonts as viewers are often viewed over 10' away
• Check for accuracy
• Material layout should be designed as a series of slides (no single slide submissions)
• Material must be visually appealing and LCR holds the right to reject content if they don't meet our standards
• Material must be in JPEG format
• Size format: Landscape: 7680px (width) x 2160px (height)
• Bookings are managed through a calendar with access by the Head of Digital Media and Technology Services, Digital Media Consultant, and the IT Generalist

Bookings may be altered or interrupted depending upon unit or institutional need. Every effort will be made to ensure this doesn’t happen but if it is required, the display owner will be contacted to discuss alternate arrangements
