Boilerplate text

Many communicators across the University often need to include 'general' material about the University and its core services in their publications.

To help communicators who need such material, DPM is building an online repository of commonly used material ('boilerplate text'). This will not only save time for people putting publications together, but will also ensure they can quickly access up-to-date pre-approved content.

For example, the repository will include:

• general information about the University (eg history, central strategy, alumni)
• information for future students (scholarship opportunities, fees, orientation details)
• information for current students (student support services).

The repository will be launched to support the January 2010 launch of the University's new brand.

If you need help with 'boilerplate' copy before then, contact DPM's senior editor.
